Subgroups of direct products of elementarily free groups

Subgroups of direct products of elementarily free groups

We exploit Zlil Sela's description of the structure of groups having the same elementary theory as free groups: they and their finitely generated subgroups form a prescribed subclass E of the hyperbolic limit groups. We prove that if $G_1,...,G_n$ are in E then a subgroup $\Gamma\subset G_1\t...

Ամփոփում:We exploit Zlil Sela's description of the structure of groups having the same elementary theory as free groups: they and their finitely generated subgroups form a prescribed subclass E of the hyperbolic limit groups. We prove that if $G_1,...,G_n$ are in E then a subgroup $\Gamma\subset G_1\times...\times G_n$ is of type $\FP_n$ if and only if $\Gamma$ is itself, up to finite index, the direct product of at most $n$ groups from $\mathcal E$. This answers a question of Sela.
