Abstract: | For any one-relator group in the family of Baumslag—Solitar groups, a system of its elements is indicated whose normal closure in the group coincides with the intersection of all normal finite-index subgroups. The well-known criterion for the residual finiteness of Baumslag—Solitar groups is an immediate consequence of this result. It is also shown that, if the intersection of all finite-index normal subgroups in a Baumslag—Solitar group differs from the identity subgroup (i.e., if the group is not residually finite), then this intersection cannot be the normal closure of any finite set of elements. |
