We prove that any group in the class of one-relator groups given by the presentation〈a,b;[am,bn]=1〉, wheremandnare integers greater than 1, is cyclic subgroup separable (orπc). We establish some suitable properties of these groups which enable us to prove that every finitely generated abelian subgroup of any of such groups is finitely separable.

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 the free product of groups A and B with commuting subgroups H ≤ A and K ≤ B, and let 𝒞 be the class of all finite groups or the class of all finite p-groups. We derive the description of all 𝒞-separable cyclic subgroups of G provided this group is residually a 𝒞-group. We prove, in particular, that if A, B are finitely generated nilpotent groups and H, K are p′-isolated in the free factors, then all p′-isolated cyclic subgroups of G are separable in the class of all finite p-groups. The same statement is true provided A, B are free and H, K are p′-isolated and cyclic.

AbstractWe prove that generalized free products of finitely generated free-byfinite groups amalgamating a cyclic subgroup are subgroup separable. From this it follows that if where t ≥ 1 and u, v are words on {a1,...,am} and {b1,...,bn} respectively then G is subgroup separable thus generalizing a result in [9] that such groups have solvable word problems.

AbstractThe main result indicates that every finitely generated, residually finite, torsion-free, cohopfian group having on free Abelian subgroup of rank two is hyperhopfian. The argument relies on earlier work and ideas of Hirshon. As a corollary, fundamental groups of all closed hyperbolic manifolds are hyperhopfian.

We study the property of tame combability for groups. We show that quasi-isometries preserve this property. We prove that an amalgamation, A *C B, where C is finitely generated, is tame combable iff both A and B are. An analogous result is obtained for HNN extensions. And we show that all one-relator groups are tame combable.

An example is given of an infinite cyclic extension of a free group of finite rank in which not every finitely generated subgroup is finitely separable. This answers negatively the question of Peter Scott as to whether in all finitely generated 3-manifold groups the finitely generated subgroups are finitely separable. In the positive direction it is shown that in knot groups and one-relator groups with centre, the finitely generated normal subgroups are finitely separable.
