Finitely Presented Residually Free Groups
We establish a general criterion for the finite presentability of subdirect products of groups and use this to characterize finitely presented residually free groups. We prove that, for all n ∈ N, a residually free group is of type FPn if and only if it is of type Fn. New families of subdirect products of free groups are constructed, including the first examples of finitely presented subgroups ...
متن کاملFitting quotients of finitely presented abelian-by-nilpotent groups
We show that every finitely generated nilpotent group of class 2 occurs as the quotient of a finitely presented abelian-by-nilpotent group by its largest nilpotent normal subgroup.
متن کاملGrowth of Finitely Presented Rees Quotients of Free Inverse Semigroups
We prove that a finitely presented Rees quotient of a free inverse semigroup has polynomial growth if and only if it has bounded height. This occurs if and only if the set of nonzero reduced words has bounded Shirshov height and all nonzero reduced but not cyclically reduced words are nilpotent. This occurs also if and only if the set of nonzero geodesic words have bounded Shirshov height. We a...
متن کاملFinitely Presented Extensions by Free Groups
We prove here that a finitely presented group with a free quotient of rank n is an HNN-extension with n stable letters of a finitely generated group where the associated subgroups are finitely generated. This theorem has a number of consequences. In particular, in the event that the free quotient is cyclic it reduces to an elementary and quick proof of a theorem of Bieri and Strebel. 1. Finitel...
متن کاملEmbedding Free Burnside Groups in Finitely Presented Groups
We construct an embedding of a free Burnside group B(m, n) of odd n > 2 and rank m > 1 in a finitely presented group with some special properties. The main application of this embedding is an easy construction of finitely presented non-amenable groups without noncyclic free subgroups (which provides a finitely presented counterexample to the von Neumann problem on amenable groups). As another a...
