On finite abelian groups realizable as Mislin genera.

Peter Hilton, Dirk Scevenels (1997)

Publicacions Matemàtiques

Similarity:

We study the realizability of finite abelian groups as Mislin genera of finitely generated nilpotent groups with finite commutator subgroup. In particular, we give criteria to decide whether a finite abelian group is realizable as the Mislin genus of a direct product of nilpotent groups of a certain specified type. In the case of a positive answer, we also give an effective way of realizing that abelian group as a genus. Further, we obtain some non-realizability results.

Factoring an odd abelian group by lacunary cyclic subsets

Sándor Szabó (2010)

Discussiones Mathematicae - General Algebra and Applications

Similarity:

It is a known result that if a finite abelian group of odd order is a direct product of lacunary cyclic subsets, then at least one of the factors must be a subgroup. The paper gives an elementary proof that does not rely on characters.
