Limits of relatively hyperbolic groups and Lyndon’s completions

Olga Kharlampovich, Alexei Myasnikov (2012)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

We describe finitely generated groups H universally equivalent (with constants from G in the language) to a given torsion-free relatively hyperbolic group G with free abelian parabolics. It turns out that, as in the free group case, the group H embeds into the Lyndon’s completion G [ t ] of the group G , or, equivalently, H embeds into a group obtained from G by finitely many extensions of centralizers. Conversely, every subgroup of G [ t ] containing G is universally equivalent to G . Since finitely generated...

Locally finite groups with all subgroups either subnormal or nilpotent-by-Chernikov

Giovanni Cutolo, Howard Smith (2012)

Open Mathematics

Let G be a locally finite group satisfying the condition given in the title and suppose that G is not nilpotent-by-Chernikov. It is shown that G has a section S that is not nilpotent-by-Chernikov, where S is either a p-group or a semi-direct product of the additive group A of a locally finite field F by a subgroup K of the multiplicative group of F, where K acts by multiplication on A and generates F as a ring. Non-(nilpotent-by-Chernikov) extensions of this latter kind exist and are described in...

Locally graded groups with certain minimal conditions for subgroups (II).

Javier Otal, Juan Manuel Peña (1988)

Publicacions Matemàtiques

This paper deals with one of the ways of studying infinite groups many of whose subgroups have a prescribed property, namely the consideration of minimal conditions. If P is a theoretical property of groups and subgroups, we show that a locally graded group P satisfies the minimal conditions for subgroups not having P if and only if either G is a Cernikov group or every subgroup of G satisfies P, for certain values of P concerning normality, nilpotency and related ideas.

Locally solid topological lattice-ordered groups

Liang Hong (2015)

Archivum Mathematicum

Locally solid Riesz spaces have been widely investigated in the past several decades; but locally solid topological lattice-ordered groups seem to be largely unexplored. The paper is an attempt to initiate a relatively systematic study of locally solid topological lattice-ordered groups. We give both Roberts-Namioka-type characterization and Fremlin-type characterization of locally solid topological lattice-ordered groups. In particular, we show that a group topology on a lattice-ordered group is...

Locally soluble-by-finite groups with small deviation for non-subnormal subgroups

Leonid A. Kurdachenko, Howard Smith (2007)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

A group G has subnormal deviation at most 1 if, for every descending chain H 0 > H 1 > of non-subnormal subgroups of G , for all but finitely many i there is no infinite descending chain of non-subnormal subgroups of G that contain H i + 1 and are contained in H i . This property 𝔓 , say, was investigated in a previous paper by the authors, where soluble groups with 𝔓 and locally nilpotent groups with 𝔓 were effectively classified. The present article affirms a conjecture from that article by showing that locally soluble-by-finite...
