In this paper we give a characterization for certain HNN extensions of subgroup separable groups with normal associated subgroups to be weakly potent. We then apply our result to show that certain HNN extensions of finitely generated nilpotent groups with central associated subgroups are weakly potent.

AbstractWe study the residual finiteness of free products with amalgamations and HNN-extensions of finitely generated nilpotent groups. We give a characterization in terms of certain conditions satisfied by the associated subgroups. In particular the residual finiteness of these groups implies the possibility of extending the isomorphism of the associated subgroups to an isomorphism of their isolated closures in suitable overgroups of the factors (or the base group in case of HNN-extensions).

In this paper, we prove that certain HNN extensions of finitely generated abelian subgroup separable groups are finitely generated abelian subgroup separable. Using this, we show that certain HNN extensions of finitely generated nilpotent groups are finitely generated abelian subgroup separable.

Let G be a nilpotent group with finite abelian ranks (e.g. let G be a finitely generated nilpotent group) and suppose φ is an automorphism of G of finite order m. If γ and ψ denote the associated maps of G given by \documentclass{aastex} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{bm} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{pifont} \usepackage{stmaryrd} \usepackage{textcomp} \usepackage{upgreek} \usepackage{portland,xspace} \usepackage{amsmath,amsxtra} \usepackage{bbm} \pagestyle{empty} \DeclareMathSizes{10}{9}{7}{6} \begin{document} $$\gamma :g \mapsto g^{ - 1} \cdot g\phi and \psi :g \mapsto g \cdot g\phi \cdot g\phi ^2 \cdots \cdot \cdot g\phi ^{m - 1} for g \in G,$$ \end{document} then Gγ · kerγ and Gψ · ker ψ are both very large in that they contain subgroups of finite index in G.

A Finite Group

AbstractThe function {\mathrm{F}_{G}(n)} gives the maximum order of a finite group needed to distinguish a nontrivial element of G from the identity with a surjective group morphism as one varies over nontrivial elements of word length at most n. In previous work [M. Pengitore, Effective separability of finitely generated nilpotent groups, New York J. Math. 24 2018, 83–145], the author claimed a characterization for {\mathrm{F}_{N}(n)} when N is a finitely generated nilpotent group. However, a counterexample to the above claim was communicated to the author, and consequently, the statement of the asymptotic characterization of {\mathrm{F}_{N}(n)} is incorrect. In this article, we introduce new tools to provide lower asymptotic bounds for {\mathrm{F}_{N}(n)} when N is a finitely generated nilpotent group. Moreover, we introduce a class of finitely generated nilpotent groups for which the upper bound of the above article can be improved. Finally, we construct a class of finitely generated nilpotent groups N for which the asymptotic behavior of {\mathrm{F}_{N}(n)} can be fully characterized.

AbstractA group G is termed conjugacy separable (c.s.) if any pair of distinct conjugacy classes may be mapped to distinct conjugacy classes in some finite epimorph of G. The free product of A and B with cyclic amalgamated subgroup H is shown to be c.s. if A and B are both free, or are both finitely generated nilpotent groups. Further, one-relator groups with nontrivial center and HNN extensions with c.s. base group and finite associated subgroups are also c.s.

We prove that every free metabelian non-cyclic group has a finitely generated isolated subgroup which is not separable in the class of nilpotent groups. As a corollary, we prove that for every prime number p, an arbitrary free metabelian non-cyclic group has a finitely generated p′-isolated subgroup which is not p-separable.

AbstractIn general polygonal products of finitely generated torsion-free nilpotent groups amalgamating cyclic subgroups need not be residually finite. In this paper we prove that polygonal products of finitely generated torsion-free nilpotent groups amalgamating maximal cyclic subgroups such that the amalgamated cycles generate an isolated subgroup in the vertex group containing them, are residually finite. We also prove that, for finitely generated torsion-free nilpotent groups, if the subgroups generated by the amalgamated cycles have the same nilpotency classes as their respective vertex groups, then their polygonal product is residually finite.
