On free subgroups of units in quaternion algebras

Jan Krempa (2001)

Colloquium Mathematicae

It is well known that for the ring H(ℤ) of integral quaternions the unit group U(H(ℤ) is finite. On the other hand, for the rational quaternion algebra H(ℚ), its unit group is infinite and even contains a nontrivial free subgroup. In this note (see Theorem 1.5 and Corollary 2.6) we find all intermediate rings ℤ ⊂ A ⊆ ℚ such that the group of units U(H(A)) of quaternions over A contains a nontrivial free subgroup. In each case we indicate such a subgroup explicitly. We do our best to keep the arguments...

On free subgroups of units in quaternion algebras II

Jan Krempa (2003)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Let A ⊆ ℚ be any subring. We extend our earlier results on unit groups of the standard quaternion algebra H(A) to units of certain rings of generalized quaternions H(A,a,b) = ((-a,-b)/A), where a,b ∈ A. Next we show that there is an algebra embedding of the ring H(A,a,b) into the algebra of standard Cayley numbers over A. Using this embedding we answer a question asked in the first part of this paper.

On group automorphisms fixing subnormal subgroups setwise

Ulderico Dardano, Clara Franchi (2000)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

In questo lavoro si studiano i gruppi Aut s n G , Aut d G , Aut χ G degli automorfismi di un gruppo G che fissano — come insiemi — tutti i sottogruppi di G che risultano essere rispettivamente subnormali, subnormali di difetto al più d , oppure che sono compresi tra un sottogruppo caratteristico ed il suo derivato. Si danno condizioni sufficienti affinché tali gruppi siano parasolubili di para-altezza al più 2 o 3. Si generalizzano così risultati da [4], [7], [8], [10].

On Groups whose Contranormal Subgroups are Normally Complemented

Kurdachenko, L. A., Subbotin, I. Ya. (2011)

Serdica Mathematical Journal

2000 Mathematics Subject Classification: 20F16, 20E15.Groups in which every contranormal subgroup is normally complemented has been considered. The description of such groups G with the condition Max-n and such groups having an abelian nilpotent residual satisfying Min-G have been obtained.

On groups with many nearly maximal subgroups

Silvana Franciosi, Francesco de Giovanni (1998)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti Lincei. Matematica e Applicazioni

A subgroup M of a group G is nearly maximal if the index | G : M | is infinite but every subgroup of G properly containing M has finite index, and the group G is called nearly I M if all its subgroups of infinite index are intersections of nearly maximal subgroups. It is proved that an infinite (generalized) soluble group is nearly I M if and only if it is either cyclic or dihedral.
