In \cite{levin}, Levin conjectured that every equation is solvable over a torsion free group. In this paper we consider a nonsingular equation $g_{1}tg_{2}t g_{3}t g_{4} t g_{5} t g_{6} t^{-1} g_{7} t g_{8}t \\ g_{9}t^{-1} = 1$ of length $9$ and show that it is solvable over torsion free groups modulo some exceptional cases.

AbstractEpimorphic images of compact (algebraically compact) abelian groups are called cotorsion groups after Harrison. In a recent paper, Ph. Schultz raised the question whether “cotorsion” is a property which can be recognized by its small cotorsion epimorphic images: If G is a torsion-free group such that every torsion-free reduced homomorphic image of cardinality is cotorsion, is G necessarily cortorsion? In this note we will give some counterexamples to this problem. In fact, there is no cardinal k which is large enough to test cotorsion.

AbstractAn interesting result of Ivanov implies that a non-aspherical relative presentation that defines a torsion-free group would provide a potential counterexample to the Kaplansky zero-divisor conjecture. In this point of view, we prove the asphericity of the length-6 relative presentation $\langle H,x: xh_1xh_2xh_3xh_4xh_5xh_6\rangle$, provided that each coefficient is torsion free.

AbstractMislin and Talelli showed that a torsion-free group in$\HF$with periodic cohomology after some steps has finite cohomological dimension. In this note we look at similar questions for groups with torsion by considering Bredon cohomology. In particular we show that every elementary amenable group acting freely and properly on some$\R^n$×Smadmits a finite dimensional model for$\E$G.

This paper considers the relationship between the automorphism group of a torsion-free nilpotent group and the automorphism groups of its subgroups and factor groups. If G2 is the derived group of the group G let Aut (G, G2) be the group of automorphisms of G which induce the identity on G/G2, and if B is a subgroup of Aut G let B¯ be the image of B in Aut G/Aut (G, G2). A p–group or torsion-free group G is said to be special if G2 coincides with Z(G), the centre of G, and G/G2 and G2 are both elementary abelian p–groups or free abelian groups.
