Reflections on the residual finiteness of one-relator groups
Let G D ha; b; : : : j r D 1i be a one-relator group equipped with at least two generators. For all w which do not commute with r in the ambient free group on the generators a, b, ..., the groups G.r;w/ D ha; b; : : : j rrw D r2i are not residually finite and have the same finite images as G. The existence of this family of one-relator groups which are not residually finite reinforces what is b...
متن کاملOn the Residual Finiteness and Other Properties of (relative) One-relator Groups
A relative one-relator presentation has the form P = 〈x,H;R〉 where x is a set, H is a group, and R is a word on x±1 ∪H. We show that if the word on x±1 obtained from R by deleting all the terms from H has what we call the unique max-min property, then the group defined by P is residually finite if and only if H is residually finite (Theorem 1). We apply this to obtain new results concerning the...
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 کاملOn the residual finiteness of outer automorphisms of hyperbolic groups
We show that every virtually torsion-free subgroup of the outer automorphism group of a conjugacy separable hyperbolic group is residually finite. As a result, we are able to prove that the group of outer automorphisms of every finitely generated Fuchsian group and of every free-by-finite group is residually finite.
متن کاملFiniteness of Class Numbers for Algebraic Groups
Let G be an affine group scheme of finite type over a global field F . (We do not assume G to be reductive or smooth or connected.) Let AF denote the locally compact adele ring of F , S be a finite non-empty set of places of F that contains the archimedean places, and AF the factor ring of adeles with vanishing component along S; for FS = ∏ v∈S Fv, we have AF = FS ×AF . Recall that if X is a fi...
