A finite set of generators for a free product of two groups of type F3with a subgroup amalgamated, and an estimation for the upper bound of the second order Dehn functions of the amalgamated free product are carried out.

We consider the growth functions βΓ(n) of amalgamated free products Γ = A *C B, where A ≅ B are finitely generated, C is free abelian and |A/C| = |A/B| = 2. For every d ∈ ℕ there exist examples with βΓ(n) ≃ nd+1βA(n). There also exist examples with βΓ(n) ≃ en. Similar behavior is exhibited among Dehn functions.

This paper explores a five-lemma situation in the context of a free product of a family of groups with amalgamated subgroups (that is, a colimit of an appropriate diagram in the category of groups). In particular, for two families {Aα}, {Bα} of groups with amalgamated subgroups {Aαβ}, {Bαβ} and free products A, B we assume the existence of homomorphisms Aα → Bα whose restrictions Aαβ → Bαβ are isomorphisms and which induce an isomorphism A → B between the products. We show that the usual five-lemma conclusion is false, in that the morphisms Aα → Bα are in general neither monic nor epic. However, if all Bα → B are monic, Aα → Bα is always epic; and if Aα → A is monic, for all α, then Aα → Bα is an isomorphism.
