On subnormal series with factors of finite rank : the join problem
In this paper groups are considered inducing groups of power automorphisms on each factor of their derived series. In particular, it is proved that soluble groups with such property have derived length at most 3, and that this bound is best possible.
This article is dedicated to some criteria of generalized nilpotency involving pronormality and abnormality. Also new results on groups, in which abnormality is a transitive relation, have been obtained.
In this paper we characterize certain classes of groups in which, from (, a fixed prime), it follows that . Our results extend results previously obtained by other authors, in the finite case.
Let G be a hypercyclic group. The most substantial results of this paper are the following. a) If G/G′ is 2-divisible, then G is 2-divisible. b) If G/G′ is a 2′-group, then G is a 2′-group. c) If G/G′ is divisible by finite-of-odd-order, then G/V is divisible by finite-of-odd-order, where V is the intersection of the lower central series (continued transfinitely) of O 2′ (G).
A construction is given, in a variety of groups, of a ``functorial center'' called the endocenter. The endocenter facilitates the identification of universal multiplication groups of groups in the variety, addressing the problem of determining when combinatorial multiplication groups are universal.
