Abstract

A group GG given by a presentation G=<AR>G = < \mathcal A \| \mathcal R > is called weakly finitely presented if every finitely generated subgroup of GG, generated by (images of) some words in A±1\mathcal A^{\pm 1}, is naturally isomorphic to the subgroup of a group G0=<A0R0>G_0 = < \mathcal A_0 \| \mathcal R_0>, where A0A\mathcal A_0 \subseteq \mathcal A, R0R\mathcal R_0 \subseteq \mathcal R are finite, generated by (images of) the same words. In the article, weakly finitely presented periodic groups which are not locally finite are constructed.
