Subgroup separability in integral group rings

Subgroup Isomorphism Problem for Units of Integral Group Rings

The Subgroup Isomorphism Problem for Integral Group Rings asks for which finite groups U it is true that if U is isomorphic to a subgroup of V(ZG), the group of normalized units of the integral group ring of the finite group G, it must be isomorphic to a subgroup of G. The smallest groups known not to satisfy this property are the counterexamples to the Isomorphism Problem constructed by M. Her...

Class Groups of Integral Group Rings(x)

Let A be an Ä-order in a semisimple finite dimensional /(-algebra, where K is an algebraic number field, and R is the ring of algebraic integers of K. Denote by C(A) the reduced class group of the category of locally free left A-lattices. Choose A= ZC, the integral group ring of a finite group G, and let A be a maximal Z-order in QG containing A. There is an epimorphism C(A)-C(A'), given by JIÍ...

Zariski closures and subgroup separability

The main result of this article is a refinement of the well-known subgroup separability results of Hall and Scott for free and surface groups. We show that for any finitely generated subgroup, there is a finite dimensional representation of the free or surface group that separates the subgroup in the induced Zariski topology. As a corollary, we establish a polynomial upper bound on the size of ...

Subgroup Separability in Residually Free Groups

We prove that the finitely presentable subgroups of residually free groups are separable and that the subgroups of type FP∞ are virtual retracts. We describe a uniform solution to the membership problem for finitely presentable subgroups of residually free groups.
