AbstractI. Lysenok and A. Ushakov proved that the Diophantine problem for spherical quadric equations in free metabelian groups is solvable. The present paper proves this result by using the Magnus embedding.

Abstract We prove that all invariant random subgroups of the lamplighter group L are co-sofic. It follows that L is permutation stable, providing an example of an infinitely presented such group. Our proof applies more generally to all permutational wreath products of finitely generated abelian groups. We rely on the pointwise ergodic theorem for amenable groups.

Journal of the Australian Mathematical Society 4 (1964), 452–453The second paragraph should be deleted. The alleged commutator identity (3) is false and is certainly not due to Philip Hall. The correct form isas Dr. N. D. Gupta of Canberra has pointed out to me. According to Professor B. H. Neumann, this identity appeared in his (Professor Neumann's) thesis.Nevertheless the theorem is valid and the proof given is correct.

Let G be a group on two generators a and b subject to the single defining relation a = [a, ab]: . As usual [x, y] = x−1y−1xy and xy = y−1xy if x and y are elements of a group. The object of this note is to show that every finite quotient of G is cyclic. This implies that every normal subgroup of G contains the derived group G′. But by Magnus' theory of groups with a single defining relation G′ ≠ 1 ([1], §4.4). So G is not residually finite. This underlines the fact that groups with a single defining relation need not be residually finite (cf. [2]).
