On residually finite groups and their generalizations

Andrzej Strojnowski (1999)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

The paper is concerned with the class of groups satisfying the finite embedding (FE) property. This is a generalization of residually finite groups. In [2] it was asked whether there exist FE-groups which are not residually finite. Here we present such examples. To do this, we construct a family of three-generator soluble FE-groups with torsion-free abelian factors. We study necessary and sufficient conditions for groups from this class to be residually finite. This answers the questions...

On Parabolic Subgroups and Hecke Algebras of some Fractal Groups

Bartholdi, Laurent, Grigorchuk, Rostislav (2002)

* The authors thank the “Swiss National Science Foundation” for its support. We study the subgroup structure, Hecke algebras, quasi-regular representations, and asymptotic properties of some fractal groups of branch type. We introduce parabolic subgroups, show that they are weakly maximal, and that the corresponding quasi-regular representations are irreducible. These (infinite-dimensional) representations are approximated by finite-dimensional quasi-regular representations....

On minimal non--groups

Francesco Russo, Nadir Trabelsi (2009)

Annales mathématiques Blaise Pascal

Similarity:

A group G is said to be a -group, if G / C G ( x G ) is a polycyclic-by-finite group for all x G . A minimal non--group is a group which is not a -group but all of whose proper subgroups are -groups. Our main result is that a minimal non--group having a non-trivial finite factor group is a finite cyclic extension of a divisible abelian group of finite rank.
