Let K be a root class of groups. It is proved that a free product of any family of residually K groups with one amalgamated subgroup, which is a retract in all free factors, is residually K. The sufficient condition for a generalized free product of two groups to be residually K is also obtained, provided that the amalgamated subgroup is normal in one of the free factors and is a retract in another.

We deal with questions about the possible embeddings of two given groups A and B in a group P such that the intersection of A and B is a given subgroup H. The data, consisting of the “constituents” A and B with the “amalgamated” subgroup H, form an amalgam.1 According to a classical theorem of Otto Schreier [5], every amalgam of two groups can be embedded in a group F, the “free product of A and B with amalgamated subgroup H” or the “generalized free product” of the amalgam. This has the property that every group P in which the amalgam is embedded and which is generated by the amalgam, is a homomorphic image of it. Hence theorems on the existence of certain embedding groups P can be interpreted also as theorems on the existence of certain normal subgroups of F.

LetG=A★HBbe the generalized free product of the groupsAandBwith the amalgamated subgroupH. Also, letλ(G)andψ(G)represent the lower near Frattini subgroup and the near Frattini subgroup ofG, respectively. IfGis finitely generated and residually finite, then we show thatψ(G)≤H, providedHsatisfies a nontrivial identical relation. Also, we prove that ifGis residually finite, thenλ(G)≤H, provided: (i)Hsatisfies a nontrivial identical relation andA,Bpossess proper subgroupsA1,B1of finite index containingH; (ii) neitherAnorBlies in the variety generated byH; (iii)H<A1≤AandH<B1≤B, whereA1andB1each satisfies a nontrivial identical relation; (iv)His nilpotent.

The Picard group Γ = PSL2 (Z(i)) is the group of linear transformationswith a, b, c, d Gaussian integers.Γ is of interest both as an abstract group and in automorphic function theory [10]. In [10] Waldinger constructed a subgroup H of finite index which is a generalized free product, while in [1] Fine showed that T is a semidirect product with the subgroup H, contained as a subgroup of finite index in the normal factor.

In [1] Higman and Neumann asked the questions whether the Frattini subgroup of a generalized free product can be larger than the amalgamated subgroup and whether such groups necessarily have maximal subgroups. In [4] Whittemore gave answers to the special cases of generalized free products of finitely many free groups with cyclic amalgamation and of generalized free products of finitely many finitely generated abelian groups. In this paper we shall study the Frattini subgroups of generalized free products of any groups with cyclic amalgamation.

AbstractWe derive a criterion for a generalized free product of groups to be cyclic subgroup separable. We see that most of the known results for cyclic subgroup separability are covered by this criterion, and we apply the criterion to polygonal products of groups. We show that a polygonal product of finitely generated abelian groups, amalgamating cyclic subgroups, is cyclic subgroup separable.
