Residual Nilpotence for Generalizations of Pure Braid Groups
It is known that the pure braid groups are residually torsion-free nilpotent. This property is however widely open for the most obvious generalizations of these groups, like pure Artin groups and like fundamental groups of hyperplane complements (even reflection ones). In this paper we relate this problem to the faithfulness of linear representations, and prove the residual torsion-free nilpote...
متن کاملBounding the Residual Finiteness of Free Groups
We find a lower bound to the size of finite groups detecting a given word in the free group. More precisely we construct a word wn of length n in non-abelian free groups with the property that wn is the identity on all finite quotients of size ∼ n2/3 or less. This improves on a previous result of BouRabee and McReynolds quantifying the lower bound of the residual finiteness of free groups. A gr...
متن کاملThe Amalgamated Product of Free Groups and Residual Solvability
In this paper we study residual solvability of the amalgamated product of two finitely generated free groups, in the case of doubles. We find conditions where this kind of structure is residually solvable, and show that in general this is not the case. However this kind of structure is always meta-residually-solvable.
متن کاملResidual properties of free groups and probabilistic methods
Let w be a non-trivial word in two variables. We prove that the probability that two randomly chosen elements x, y of a nonabelian finite simple group S satisfy w(x, y) = 1 tends to 0 as |S| → ∞. As a consequence, we obtain a new short proof of a well-known conjecture of Magnus concerning free groups, as well as some applications to profinite groups. Research partially supported by NSERC grant ...
متن کاملRESIDUAL SOLUBILITY OF SF-GROUPS
Seifert Fibre Groups (SF-Gps) have been introduced and their first derived groups have been worked out in an earlier paper by the author [2,3]. Now we aim to prove that they are residually soluble and residually finite.
