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 کاملThe Two - Generator Subgroups of One - Relator Groups with Torsion
The main aim of this paper is to show that every two-generator subgroup of any one-relator group with torsion is either a free product of cyclic groups or is a one-relator group with torsion. This result is proved by using techniques for reducing pairs of elements in certain HNN groups. These techniques not only apply to one-relator groups with torsion but also to a large number of other groups...
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 کاملConjugacy Separability of Some One-Relator Groups
Conjugacy separability of any group of the class of one-relator groups given by the presentation a, b; a m , b n 1m, n > 1 is proven. The proof made used of theoretical combinatorial group methods, namely the structure of amalgamated free products and some properties of the subgroups and quotients of any group of the class of one-relator groups given above.
متن کاملSome results on one-relator surface groups
If S is noncompact, or has nonempty boundary, then π1(S) is free, and the answer to Question 1 is yes, by an old result of Magnus [7] on one-relator groups. (Essentially, the defining relator in a one-relator group on a given generating set is unique up to conjugacy and inversion.) We will show (see Theorem 3.4 below) that Question 1 also has an affirmative answer in the case of a closed surfac...
