We prove that generalized free products of certain abelian subgroup separable groups are abelian subgroup separable. Applying this, we show that tree products of polycyclic-by-finite groups, amalgamating central subgroups or retracts are abelian subgroup separable.

AbstractWe prove that generalized free products of finitely generated free-byfinite or nilpotent-by-finite groups amalgamating a cyclic subgroup areconjugacy separable. Applying this result we prove a generalization of a conjecture of Fine and Rosenberger [7] that groups of F-type are conjugacy separable.

Let [Formula: see text] be a nonempty class of finite groups closed under taking subgroups, quotients and extensions. We consider groups G endowed with their pro-[Formula: see text] topology, and say that G is 2-subgroup separable if whenever H and K are finitely generated closed subgroups of G, then the subset HK is closed. We prove that if the groups G1 and G2 are 2-subgroup separable, then so is their free product G1*G2. This extends a result to T. Coulbois. The proof uses actions of groups on abstract and profinite trees.

LetG=A★HBbe the generalized free product of the groupsAandBwith the amalgamated subgroupH. Also, letλ(G)andψ(G)represent the lower near Frattini subgroup and the near Frattini subgroup ofG, respectively. IfGis finitely generated and residually finite, then we show thatψ(G)≤H, providedHsatisfies a nontrivial identical relation. Also, we prove that ifGis residually finite, thenλ(G)≤H, provided: (i)Hsatisfies a nontrivial identical relation andA,Bpossess proper subgroupsA1,B1of finite index containingH; (ii) neitherAnorBlies in the variety generated byH; (iii)H<A1≤AandH<B1≤B, whereA1andB1each satisfies a nontrivial identical relation; (iv)His nilpotent.

Using Stalling's characterization [11] of finitely generated (f. g.) groups with infinitely many ends, and subgroup theorems for generalized free products and HNN groups (see [9], [5], and [7]), we give (in Theorem 1) a n.a.s.c. for a f.g. group to be a finite extension of a free group. Specifically (using the terminology extension of and notation of [5]), a f.g. group G is a finite extension of a free group if and only if G is an HNN group where K is a tree product of a finite number of finite groups (the vertices of K), and each (associated) subgroup Li, Mi is a subgroup of a vertex of K.

Each action of a finitely generated group on a set uniquely defines a labelled directed graph called the Schreier graph of the action. Schreier graphs are used mainly as a tool to establish geometrical and dynamical properties of corresponding group actions. In particilar, they are widely used in order to check amenability of different classed of groups. In the present paper Schreier graphs are utilized to construct new examples of faithful actions of free products of groups. Using Schreier graphs of group actions a sufficient condition for a group action to be faithful is presented. This result is applied to finite automaton actions on spaces of words i.e. actions defined by finite automata over finite alphabets. It is shown how to construct new faithful automaton presentations of groups upon given such a presentation. As an example a new countable series of faithful finite automaton presentations of free products of finite groups is constructed. The obtained results can be regarded as another way to construct new faithful actions of  groups  as soon as at least one such an action is provided.

AbstractWe derive a criterion for a generalized free product of groups to be cyclic subgroup separable. We see that most of the known results for cyclic subgroup separability are covered by this criterion, and we apply the criterion to polygonal products of groups. We show that a polygonal product of finitely generated abelian groups, amalgamating cyclic subgroups, is cyclic subgroup separable.

AbstractWe give examples to show that unlike generalized free products of groups (g.f.p.) polygonal products of finitely generated (f.g.) nilpotent groups with cyclic amalgamations need not be residually finite (R) and polygonal products of finite p-groups with cyclic amalgamations need not be residually nilpotent. However, polygonal products f.g. abelian groups are R, and under certain conditions polygonal products of finite p-groups with cyclic amalgamations are R.
