Groups with countably many subgroups
نویسنده
چکیده
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.

From isolated subgroups to generic permutation representations
Let G be a countable group, Sub(G) be the (compact, metric) space of all subgroups of G with the Chabauty topology and Is(G) ⊆ Sub(G) be the collection of isolated points. We denote by X! the (Polish) group of all permutations of a countable set X. Then the following properties are equivalent: (i) Is(G) is dense in Sub(G); (ii) G admits a ‘generic permutation representation’. Namely, there exis...
متن کاملSubgroups defining automorphisms in locally nilpotent groups
We investigate some situation in which automorphisms of a groupG are uniquely determined by their restrictions to a proper subgroup H . Much of the paper is devoted to studying under which additional hypotheses this property forces G to be nilpotent if H is. As an application we prove that certain countably infinite locally nilpotent groups have uncountably many (outer) automorphisms.
متن کاملSubgroups of Monothetic Groups
It is shown that every separable abelian topological group is isomorphic with a topological subgroup of a monothetic group (that is, a topological group with a single topological generator). In particular, every separable metrizable abelian group embeds into a metrizable monothetic group. More generally, we describe all topological groups that can be embedded into monothetic groups: they are ex...
متن کاملDisjoint Non-free Subgoups of Abelian Groups
Let G be an abelian group and let λ be the smallest rank of any group whose direct sum with a free group is isomorphic to G. If λ is uncountable, then G has λ pairwise disjoint, non-free subgroups. There is an example where λ is countably infinite and G does not have even two disjoint, non-free subgroups.

1 2 3 We embed a countably categorical group G into a locally compact group G with a non-trivial topology and study how topological properties of G are connected with the structure of definable subgroups of G .
