We established several new criteria for existence of complements and supplements to some normal abelian subgroups in groups. In passing, as one of the many useful applications and corollaries of these results, we obtained a description of some finitely generated soluble groups of finite Hirsch–Zaitsev rank. As another application of our results, we obtained a D.J.S. Robinson's theorem on structure of finitely generated soluble groups of finite section rank. The original proof of this theorem was homological, but all proofs in this paper, including this one, are purely group-theoretical.

The paper is devoted to the study of some important types of minimal artinian linear groups. The authors prove that in such classes of groups as hypercentral groups (so also, nilpotent and abelian groups) andFC-groups, minimal artinian linear groups have precisely the same structure as the corresponding irreducible linear groups.

A group G is said to have finite section p-rankrp(G) = r (here p is a prime) if every elementary abelian p-section U/V of G is finite of order at most pr and there is an elementary abelian p-section A/B of G such that |A/B| = pr. If ℙ is the set of all primes and λ : ℙ → ℕ ∪ {0} is a function, we say that a group G has λ-bounded section rank if rp(G) ≤ λ(p) for each p ∈ ℙ. In this paper we show that if G is a locally generalized radical group in which the normal closures of the cyclic subgroups of G have finite λ-bounded section rank, then [G,G] has [Formula: see text]-bounded section rank for some function [Formula: see text]. This is a wide generalization of some results by Neumann, Smith and many others. Moreover we are able to give explicit formulas for the involved bounds.

Abstract Extending a result by Alon, Linial, and Meshulam to abelian groups, we prove that if G is a finite abelian group of exponent m and S is a sequence of elements of G such that any subsequence of S consisting of at least $$|S| - m\ln |G|$$ elements generates G, then S is an additive basis of G . We also prove that the additive span of any l generating sets of G contains a coset of a subgroup of size at least $$|G{|^{1 - c{ \in ^l}}}$$ for certain c=c(m) and $$ \in = \in (m) < 1$$ ; we use the probabilistic method to give sharper values of c(m) and $$ \in (m)$$ in the case when G is a vector space; and we give new proofs of related known results.
