AbstractIn this note we shall give characterisations for HNN extensions of non-cyclic polycyclic-by-finite groups with normal infinite cyclic associated subgroups to be residually finite, subgroup separable and conjugacy separable.

AbstractWe study the residual finiteness of free products with amalgamations and HNN-extensions of finitely generated nilpotent groups. We give a characterization in terms of certain conditions satisfied by the associated subgroups. In particular the residual finiteness of these groups implies the possibility of extending the isomorphism of the associated subgroups to an isomorphism of their isolated closures in suitable overgroups of the factors (or the base group in case of HNN-extensions).

AbstractIn general polygonal products of finitely generated torsion-free nilpotent groups amalgamating cyclic subgroups need not be residually finite. In this paper we prove that polygonal products of finitely generated torsion-free nilpotent groups amalgamating maximal cyclic subgroups such that the amalgamated cycles generate an isolated subgroup in the vertex group containing them, are residually finite. We also prove that, for finitely generated torsion-free nilpotent groups, if the subgroups generated by the amalgamated cycles have the same nilpotency classes as their respective vertex groups, then their polygonal product is residually finite.
