The Congruence Subgroup Problem for the Free Metabelian Group on two generators

Group Theory 2014-07-22 v2

Abstract

In this paper we describe the profinite completion of the free solvable group on m generators of solvability length r>1. Then, we show that for m=r=2, the free metabelian group on two generators does not have the Congruence Subgroup Property.
