AB - If f:G → H is a group homomorphism and p,q are the projections from the free product G*H onto its factors G and H respectively, let the group $_{f}⊆ G*H$ be the equalizer of fp and q:G*H → H. Then p restricts to an epimorphism $p_{f} = p|_{f}:_{f} → G$. A right inverse (section) $G → _{f}$ of $p_{f}$ is called a coaction on G. In this paper we study $_{f}$ and the sections of $p_{f}$. We consider the following topics: the structure of $_{f}$ as a free product, the restrictions on G resulting from the existence of a coaction, maps of coactions and the resulting category of groups with a coaction and associativity of coactions.
