Non-linear residually finite groups
We prove that groups 〈a, b, t | tat = a, tbt = b〉 are not linear provided k, l 6∈ {−1, 1}. As a consequence we obtain the first example of a non-linear residually finite 1related group.
متن کاملRESIDUALLY FINITE RATIONALLY p GROUPS
In this article we develop the theory of residually finite rationally p (RFRp) groups, where p is a prime. We first prove a series of results about the structure of finitely generated RFRp groups (either for a single prime p, or for infinitely many primes), including torsion-freeness, a Tits alternative, and a restriction on the BNS invariant. Furthermore, we show that many groups which occur n...
متن کاملOn Residually Finite Knot Groups
The residual finiteness of the class of groups of fibred knots, or those knot groups with finitely generated and, therefore, free commutator subgroups, has been known for some time. Using Baumslag's results on absolutely parafree groups, this paper extends the result to twist knots (Whitehead doubles of the trivial knot) and certain other classes of nonfibred knots whose minimal spanning surfac...

متن کاملEngel Elements in Groups and Dynamical Systems Defining Nilpotency in Finite Groups
A relationship between two natural dynamical systems on groups is established thereby giving a new characterization of Engel elements. Using this connection, various closure properties for the sets of left and right Engel elements are established. Some other dynamical systems and their relationship with Engel elements and nilpotency for finite groups are also considered.
