Free groups, symmetric and reduced products

Groups assembled from free and direct products

Let A be the collection of groups which can be assembled from infinite cyclic groups using the binary operations free and direct product. These groups can be described in several ways by graphs. The group (Z ∗Z)×(Z ∗Z) has been shown by [1] to have a rich subgroup structure. In this article we examine subgroups of A–groups. DefineA to be the smallest class of groups which contains the infinite ...

Profinite Topologies in Free Products of Groups

Let H be an abstract group and let C be a variety of finite groups (i.e., a class of finite groups closed under taking subgroups, quotients and finite direct products); for example the variety of all finite p-groups, for a fixed prime p. Consider the smallest topology on H such that all the homomorphism H −→ C from H to any group C ∈ C (endowed with the discrete topology) is continuous. We refe...

finite simple groups which are the products of symmetric or alternating groups with $l_{3}(4)$

in this paper‎, ‎we determine the simple groups $g=ab$‎, ‎where $b$ is isomorphic to $l_{3}(4)$ and $a$ isomorphic to an alternating or a symmetric group on $ngeq5$‎, ‎letters‎.
