In this paper we prove the theorem on freedom for relatively free groups with a single relation (analogous with the well-known result of Magnus) and a generalized Freiheitssatz for relatively free groups (analogous with the well-known…
In this paper, we generalise Magnus' Freiheitssatz and solution to the word problem for one-relator groups by considering one relator quotients of certain classes of right-angled Artin groups and graph products of locally indicable…
We generalise a key result of one-relator group theory, namely Magnus's Freiheitssatz, to partially commutative groups, under sufficiently strong conditions on the relator. The main theorem shows that under our conditions, on an element $r$…
Magnus' Freiheitssatz states that if a group is defined by a presentation with $m$ generators and a single relator containing the last generating letter, then the first $m-1$ letters freely generate a free subgroup. We study an analogue of…
Three versions of the Freiheitssatz are proved in the context of one-relator quotients of limit groups, where the latter are equipped with 1-acylindrical splittings over cyclic subgroups. These are natural extensions of previously published…
The known facts about solvability of equations over groups are considered from a more general point of view. A generalized version of the theorem about solvability of unimodular equations over torsion-free groups is proved. In a special…
We prove a Freiheitssatz for one-relator products of torsion-free groups, where the relator has syllable length at most 8. This result has applications to equations over torsion-free groups: in particular a singular equation of syllable…
A group $G$ possesses the Magnus property if for every two elements $u$, $v \in G$ with the same normal closure, $u$ is conjugate to $v$ or $v^{-1}$. O. Bogopolski and J. Howie proved independently that the fundamental groups of all closed…
In this paper we prove the theorem on freedom for relatively free groups with a single relation (analogous with the well-known result of Magnus) and the theorem on freedom for relatively free Lie algebras with a single relation (analogous…
This is an English translation of three articles, originally written in German, by Wilhelm Magnus (1907--1990). The articles are from 1930, 1931, and 1932, respectively, and were the first articles published on one-relator group theory. The…
We establish a sufficient condition for a finitely generated pro-$p$ group to be accessible in terms of finite generation of the module of ends.
In this paper we prove the theorem on freedom for free products with a single relation (analogous with the well-known result of Magnus) and a generalized Freiheitssatz for free products (analogous with the well-known result of Romanovski)
We give three necessary and sufficient conditions for a pro-p group to be p-adic analytic. We show that a noetherian pro-p group having finite chain length has a finite rank and conversely. We further deduce that a noetherian pro-p group…
We define the notion of accessibility for a pro-$p$ group. We prove that finitely generated pro-$p$ groups are accessible given a bound on the size of their finite subgroups. We then construct a finitely generated inaccessible pro-$p$…
The main result includes as special cases on the one hand, the Gerstenhaber--Rothaus theorem (1962) and its generalisation due to Nitsche and Thom (2022) and, on the other hand, the Brodskii--Howie--Short theorem (1980--1984) generalising…
We show that a closed finite index subgroup of a free proalgebraic group is itself a free proalgebraic group. Our main motivation for this result is an application in differential Galois theory: The absolute differential Galois group of a…
We provide a sufficient condition under which a closed subgroup of a restricted free pro-p product is itself a free pro-p product.
In [10] Benjamin Klopsch and Ilir Snopce posted the conjecture that for $p\geq 3$ and $G$ a torsion-free pro-$p$ group $d(G)=\dim (G)$ is a sufficient and necessary condition for the pro-$p$ group $G$ to be uniform. They pointed out that…
Motivated by a classic result for free groups, one says that a group $G$ has the Magnus property if the following holds: whenever two elements generate the same normal subgroup of $G$, they are conjugate or inverse-conjugate in $G$. It is a…
A Magnus subgroup of a one-relator group is the free subgroup freely generated by a proper subset of the generators. Two such subgroups can intersect in the obvious way or in a larger, exceptional way. The condition of non-exceptional…
