چکیده

Let K be the kernel of an epimorphism χ : G → Z, for G a finitely presented group. If K has uncountably many normal subgroups of finite index r, then K has uncountably many subgroups (not necessarily normal) of any finite index greater than r. In particular, this is the case whenever G is subgroup separable and K is nonfinitely generated. Assume that G has an abelian HNN base contained in K. If K has infinitely many subgroups of a given finite index, then it has uncountably many.

Groups with countably many subgroups

We describe soluble groups in which the set of all subgroups is countable and show that locally (soluble-byfinite) groups with this property are soluble-by-finite. Further, we construct a nilpotent group with uncountably many subgroups in which the set of all abelian subgroups is countable.

Chain groups of homeomorphisms of the interval

We introduce and study the notion of a chain group of homeomorphisms of a one-manifold, which is a certain generalization of Thompson’s group F. The resulting class of groups exhibits a combination of uniformity and diversity. On the one hand, a chain group either has a simple commutator subgroup or the action of the group has a wandering interval. In the latter case, the chain group admits a c...

Lattices in Kac - Moody Groups

Initially, we set out to construct non-uniform ‘arithmetic’ lattices in Kac-Moody groups of rank 2 over finite fields, as constructed by Tits ([Ti1], [Ti2]) using the BruhatTits tree of a Tits system for such groups. This attempt succeeded, and in fact, the construction we used can be applied to higher rank Kac-Moody groups over sufficiently large finite fields, and their buildings (Theorem 1.7...

The influence of S-embedded subgroups on the structure of finite groups

Let H be a subgroup of a group G. H is said to be S-embedded in G if G has a normal T such that HT is an S-permutable subgroup of G and H ∩ T ≤ H sG, where H denotes the subgroup generated by all those subgroups of H which are S-permutable in G. In this paper, we investigate the influence of minimal S-embedded subgroups on the structure of finite groups. We determine the structure the finite grou...
