Solvable infinite-dimensional linear groups with restrictions on the nonabelian subgroups of infinite rank

Under study are the solvable nonabelian linear groups of infinite central dimension and sectional p-rank, p ≥ 0, in which all proper nonabelian subgroups of infinite sectional p-rank have finite central dimension. We describe the structure of the groups of this class.     

Locally nilpotent linear groups with restrictions on their subgroups of infinite central dimension

Let F be a field and V a vector space over F. If G is a subgroup of GL(V, F), then we define the central dimension of G (denoted by centdim _F G) as the F-dimension of the factor-space V/C _V (G). In this paper, we continue the study of locally nilpotent linear groups satisfying the weak minimal or the weak maximal condition on their subgroups of infinite central dimension started in Kurdachenko et al. (Publ Mat 52:151–169, 2008). Supported by Proyecto MTM2007-60994 of Dirección General de Investigación MEC (Spain).     

Infinite-dimensional linear groups with restrictions on subgroups that are not soluble <Emphasis Type="Italic">A</Emphasis><Subscript>3</Subscript>-groups

We are concerned with infinite-dimensional locally soluble linear groups of infinite central dimension that are not soluble A₃-groups and all of whose proper subgroups, which are not soluble A₃-groups, have finite central dimension. The structure of groups in this class is described. The case of infinite-dimensional locally nilpotent linear groups satisfying the specified conditions is treated separately. A similar problem is solved for infinite-dimensional locally soluble linear groups of infinite fundamental dimension that are not soluble A₃-groups and all of whose proper subgroups, which are not soluble A₃-groups, have finite fundamental dimension. __________ Translated from Algebra i Logika, Vol. 46, No. 5, pp. 548–559, September–October, 2007.     

On the prefrattini subgroups of finite soluble groups

We study the partially prefrattini groups of a finite soluble group. We prove that the set of all partially prefrattini subgroups associated with the Gaschütz system of complements to crowns is a Boolean lattice.     

Periodic subgroups of projective linear groups in positive characteristic

We classify the maximal irreducible periodic subgroups of PGL(q, ), where is a field of positive characteristic p transcendental over its prime subfield, q = p is prime, and ^× has an element of order q. That is, we construct a list of irreducible subgroups G of GL(q, ) containing the centre ^×1 _q of GL(q, ), such that G/ ^×1 _q is a maximal periodic subgroup of PGL(q, ), and if H is another group of this kind then H is GL(q, )-conjugate to a group in the list. We give criteria for determining when two listed groups are conjugate, and show that a maximal irreducible periodic subgroup of PGL(q, ) is self-normalising.      

Locally graduated groups with complemented infinite nonprimary subgroups

The investigations of infinite groups with certain systems of complemented infinite subgroups, suggested by Chernikov, are continued. It is proved that an infinic locally graduated, nonprimary group with complemented infinite nonprimary subgroups is locally finite and solvable, and all of its nonprimary subgroups have complements if and only if it is not Chernikov.Translated from Ukrainskii Matematicheskii Zhurnal, Vol. 44, No. 6, pp. 839–842, June, 1992.     

Locally graded groups with complemented infinite nonabelian subgroups

Infinite nonabelian groups with complemented infinite nonabelian subgroups are investigated. It is proved that, under the condition of being locally graded, these groups are locally finite and solvable, and all nonabelian subgroups are complemented in them if and only if they are non-Chernikov groups.Translated from Ukrainskii Matematicheskii Zhurnal, Vol. 43, Nos. 7 and 8, pp, 1098–1100, July–August, 1991.     

Automorphisms and normal subgroups of linear groups

In the present paper, the properties of orders of coprime automorphisms of irreducible linear groups are established and sufficient conditions for the existence of a normal Hall π-subgroup in a given π-separable irreducible complex linear group are obtained. Библиография: 11 наэваний.     

On subnormal subgroups of linear groups

We describe the subnormal subgroups of 2-dimensional linear groups over local and full rings in which 2 is invertible, as well as the subnormal subgroups of symplectic groups over local rings in which 2 is invertible.

Linear groups with rank restrictions on the subgroups of infinite central dimension

The authors study linear groups of infinite central dimension and of infinite p-rank all of whose proper subgroups of infinite p-rank are of finite central dimension.     

Uniform Boundedness of Torsion Subgroups of Linear Groups

The torsion conjecture says： for any abelian variety A defined over a number field k, the order of the torsion subgroup of A（k） is bounded by a constant C（k,d） which depends only on the number field k and the dimension d of the abelian variety. The torsion conjecture remains open in general. However, in this paper, a short argument shows that the conjecture is true for more general fields if we consider linear groups instead of abelian varieties. If G is a connected linear algebraic group defined over a field k which is finitely generated over Q,Г is a torsion subgroup of G（k）. Then the order of Г is bounded by a constant C＇（k, d） which depends only on k and the dimension d of G.     

Groups with restrictions on infinite subnormal subgroups

In this article groups are investigated in which every infinite subnormal subgroup has finitely many conjugates or has finite index in its normal closure.     

Locally Farkas-Minkowski linear inequality systems

This paper introduces thelocally Farkas-Minkowski (LFM) linear inequality systems in a finite dimensional Euclidean space. These systems are those ones that satisfy that any consequence of the system that is active at some solution point is also a consequence of some finite subsystem. This class includes the Farkas-Minkowski systems and verifies most of the properties that these systems possess. Moreover, it contains the locally polyhedral systems, which are the natural external representation of quasi-polyhedral sets. TheLFM systems appear to be the natural external representation of closed convex sets. A characterization based on their properties under the union of systems is provided. In linear semi-infinite programming, theLFM property is the more general constraint qualification such that the Karush-Kuhn-Tucker condition characterizes the optimal points. Furthermore, the pair of Haar dual problems has no duality gap.     

On infinite groups with a given strongly isolated 2-subgroup

It is proved that some groups with a strongly isolated 2-subgroup of period not exceeding four are locally finite. In particular, the positive answer to Shunkov’s question 10.76 in the Kourovka notebook is obtained. Translated fromMatematicheskie Zametki, Vol. 68, No. 2, pp. 272–285, August, 2000.     

On g-s-supplemented subgroups of finite groups

A subgroup H of a group G is said to be g-s-supplemented in G if there exists a subgroup K of G such that HK⊴G and H ∩ K ⩽ H _sG , where H_sG is the largest s-permutable subgroup of G contained in H. By using this new concept, we establish some new criteria for a group G to be soluble.     

Essential subgroups of topological groups

We study the class Wof Hausdorff topological groups Gfor which the following two cardinal invariants coincide

ES(G)=min{|H|:H≤ Gdense and essential}

TD(G)=min{|H|:H≤ Gtotally dense}

We prove that W contains the following classes:locally compact abelian groups, compact connected groups, countably compact totally discon¬nected abelian groups, topologically simple groups, locally compact Abelian groups when endowed with their Bohr topology, totally minimal abelian groups and free Abelian topological groups. For all these classes we are also able to giv ean explicit computation of the common value of ESand TD.
