Abstract
Given a permutational wreath product sequence of cyclic groups we investigate its minimal generating set, minimal generating set for its commutator and some properties of its commutator subgroup.

Abstract
We generalize the results presented in the book of Meldrum J. [2] about commutator subgroup of wreath products since, as well as considering regular wreath products, we consider those which are not regular (in the sense that the active group does not have to act faithfully). The commutator of such a group, its minimal generating set and the centre of such products has been investigated here.
The quotient group of the restricted and unrestricted wreath product by its commutator is found. The generic sets of commutator of wreath product were investigated.
The structure of wreath product with non-faithful group action is investigated.
Given a permutational wreath product sequence of cyclic groups, we investigate its minimal generating set, the minimal generating set for its commutator and some properties of its commutator subgroup.
We strengthen the results from the author [19, 21, 22, 25] and construct the minimal generating set for the wreath product of both finite and infinite cyclic groups, in addition to the direct product of such groups.
The fundamental group of orbits of a Morse function defined upon a Möbius band with respect to the right action of the group of diffeomorphisms has been investigated. In particular, we describe the precise algebraic structure of the group . A minimal set of generators for the group of orbits of the functions arising under the action of the diffeomorphisms group stabilising the function and stabilizing have been found. The Morse function has critical sets with one saddle point.
We consider a new class of wreath-cyclic geometrical groups. The minimal generating set for this group and for the commutator of the group are found.

1 Introduction
Lucchini A. [11] previously investigated a case of the generating set of , where denotes a finite -generated group, is a prime which does not divide the order and denotes the cyclic group of order . The results of Lucchini A. [11] tell us that the wreath product is also -generated. We firstly consider the active group which is cyclic and then generalize this wreath product for both iterated wreath products and for the direct product of wreath products of cyclic groups. It should be noted that a similar question for iterated wreath product was studied by Bondarenko I. [3].
Maksymenko S. [12] has proven that the -th homotopy groups of the orbit of , , with respect to the right action of the group, , of diffeomorphisms of , coincides with those of for , i.e. , while, for the fundamental group , it is known that it contains a free abelian subgroup of finite index. Despite this, information regarding the fundamental group remains incomplete. We provide some insight by finding the minimal generating set and its relations for the group .
All theorems and propositions are obtained and proved by the Ruslan Skuratovskii, corollaries and examples were obtained in collaboration with the co-author.
This paper after previous Arxiv versions [23, 24] with previous title ”Minimal generating set and structure of wreath product of groups with non-faithful action, comutator subgroup of wreath product and the fundamental group of orbit of Morse function ” was published [28].
2 Preliminaries
Let be a group and let denote its minimal number of generators [11, 3]. A diffeomorphism is said to be -preserving if . This is equivalent to the assumption that is invariant each level-set, i.e. , of , where denotes either the real line or the circle .
The commutator width of [16], denoted by , is defined to be the least integer , such that every element of is a product of at most commutators if such an integer exists, and otherwise is . The first example of a finite perfect group with was presented by Isaacs I. [8]. The property of commutator widths for groups and elements has proven to be important and in particular, its connections with stable commutator length and bounded cohomology has become significant.
Meldrum J. [2] briefly considered one form of commutators of the wreath product . In order to obtain a more detailed description of this form, we take into account the commutator width by as presented in work of Muranov A. [14]. and [20].
The form of commutator presentation [2] has been given here in the form of wreath recursion [10] and additionally, its commutator width has been studied.
The subtree of (or ) which is induced by the set of vertices is denoted by or . Denote the restriction of the action of an automorphism to the subtree by . It should be noted that a restriction is called the vertex permutation (v.p) of in a vertex .
3 Commutator subgroup and center of wreath product with non-faithful action
In this work, we strengthen and continue the previous results of the author [19] and will additionally consider a new class of groups. This class is precisely the wreath-cyclic groups and will be denoted by . Let , then this class is constructed by formula:
[TABLE]
where the orders of are denoted by .
It should be noted that at the end of this product, a semidirect product could arise with a given homomorphism , which is defined by a free action on the set . In other words, one would obtain a group of the form
Note that the last group here is isomorphic to one of the fundamental orbital groups of the Morse function . Namely, we have [12].
Consider now the group , whose orders for all are mutually coprime for all and whose number of cyclic factors in the wreath product is finite. We will call such group wreath-cyclic.
Note that the multiplication rule of automorphisms , which are presented in the form of wreath recursion [15] is given precisely by the formula:
[TABLE]
In the general case, if an active group is not cyclic, then the cycle decomposition of an -tuple for automorphism sections will induce the corresponding decomposition of the . If is v.p of automorphism at and all the vertex permutations below are trivial, then we do not distinguish from the section of which is defined by it. That is to say, we can write as proposed by Bartholdi L., Grigorchuk R. and Šuni Z. [1].
3.1 Minimal generating set of direct product of wreath product of cyclic groups
We now make use of both rooted and directed automorphisms as introduced by Bartholdi L., Grigorchuk R. and Šuni Z. [1]. Recall that we denote a truncated tree by .
Definition 1**.**
An automorphism of is said to be rooted if all of its vertex permutations corresponding to non-empty words are trivial.
Let be an infinite ray in .
Definition 2**.**
The automorphism of is said to be directed along the infinite ray if all vertex permutations along and all vertex permutations corresponding to vertices whose distance to the ray is at least two are trivial. In such case, we say that is the spine of (as exemplified in Figure 1). ray is at least two are trivial, then we say that the automorphism of is directed along and we will call the spine of (Figure 1).
It should be noted that because we consider only truncated trees and truncated automorphisms here and for convenience, we will say rooted automorphism instead of truncated rooted automorphism.
We recall in reformulated form the result of A. Woryna, [4] about a minimal generating set of iterated wreath product. Also we generalised this result after this theorem.
Theorem 1**.**
If orders of cyclic groups , are mutually coprime , then the group admits two generators, namely , .
Proof.
Construct the generators of as a rooted automorphism (Figure 2) and a directed automorphism [1] along a path (Figure 1) on a rooted labeled truncated tree .
We consider the group . Construct the generating set of , where the active group is on the left. Denote by the least common multiplier of the orders by . In a similar fashion, we denote similarly.
We utilise a presentation of those wreath product elements from a tableaux of Kaloujnine L. [9] which has the form . Additionally, we use a subgroup of tableau with length which has the form . The tableaux which has first trivial coordinates was denoted in [26] by
[TABLE]
The canonical set of generators for the wreath product of was used by Dmitruk Y. and Sushchanskii V. [6] and additionally utilised by the author [18]. This set has form
[TABLE]
We split such a table into sections with respect to (1), where the -th section corresponds to portrait of at -th level. The first section corresponds to an active group and the crown of wreath product , the second section is separated with a semicolon to a base of the wreath product. The sections of the base of wreath product are divided into parts by semicolon and these parts correspond to groups which form the base of wreath product. The -th section of of a tableau presentation of automorphism corresponds to portrait of automorphism on level .
The portrait of automorphisms on level is characterised by the sequence , where coordinate is the vertex number of unique non trivial v.p on , the sequence has coordinates. Therefore, our first generator has the form , which is the rooted automorphism. The second generator has the form
[TABLE]
It should be noted that after the last(fourth) semicolon (or in other words before ) there are trivial coordinates. There are trivial coordinates before (or in other words after the fifth semicolon but before ). In a section after semicolon the coordinate of a non-trivial element is calculated in a similar way. We know from [26] that is generator of , i.e. 2-base of . Recall that calls k-th base of . The subgroup is a subgroup of all tableaux of form with .
Let and set . We have to show that our generating set generates the whole canonical generating set. For this, we obtain the second new generator in form of the tableau
[TABLE]
Since and , we find that the element is generator of since . We obtain that
[TABLE]
which corresponds to generator of canonical generating set (1). Observe that is generator of , i.e. it is precisely a 3-base of .
It is known [26] that the generator precisely generates the group that is isomorphic to the group for all -nd coordinate tableaux. From the same principle, one can obtain that
[TABLE]
This generator generates the group which is isomorphic to the group of all -th coordinate tableaux, which is precisely [26]. Making use of the same principle allows us to express all the from our canonical generating set.
Note that if it were a self-similar group, then it would be more useful to present it in terms of wreath recursion, as the set where is the rooted automorphism. Given a permutational representation of we can present our group by wreath recursion. We present by wreath recursion as . It would be written in form , since and then the element is generator of too, because .
We then obtain the second generator of canonical generating set by exponentiation . Since we have obtained , we can express , where is a state of .
Consider an alternative recursive constructed generating set which consists of nested automorphism states which are , ,…, and the automorphism . The state is expressed as follows .
It should be noted that a second generator of a recursive generating set could be constructed in an other way, namely , where is the state in a vertex of the second level .
We can then express the next state of by multiplying . Therefore, by a recursive approach, we obtain and analogously we obtain . Similarly, we obtain
[TABLE]
and . The -th generator of the recursive generating set can therefore be expressed as . The last generator of our generating set has another structure, namely which concludes the proof. ∎
Let be generated by and and . Denote an order of by .
Theorem 2**.**
If and or and , then there exists generating set of 2 elements for the wreath-cyclic group
[TABLE]
where are orders of .
Proof.
The generators and are directed automorphisms, are rooted automorphisms [1]. The structure of tableaux are described above in Theorem 1. In case are mutually coprime and are mutually coprime, then we group generator and in vector that is first generator of direct product . Therefore, the first generator of has form and the second generator has form of vector . The generator has a similar structure.
In order to express the generator of the canonical set (1) from we change the exponent from to . Analogously, we obtain which concludes the proof. ∎
3.2 Generators of commutator subgroup and center of a wreath product of group with a non-faithful action
Let us find upper bound of generators number for . Let be a group and a permutation group, i.e. a group acting upon a set , where the active group can act not faithfully. Consider the set of all pairs . We define a product on this set as
[TABLE]
where .
Theorem 3**.**
If , where and active group acts on transitively, then
[TABLE]
Proof.
The generators of in form of tableaux [13]: , , where , , , . Note that, on a each coordinate of tableau, that presents a commutator of and , can be product of form and , according to Corollary 4.9 [2]. This products should satisfy the following condition:
[TABLE]
That is to say that the product of coordinates of wreath product base is an element of commutator . As it was described above it is subdirect product of with the additional condition (2). This is the case because not all element of the subdirect product are independent because the elements must be chosen in such a way that (2) holds. We may rearrange the factors in the product in the following way:
[TABLE]
where is a commutator in case . We express this element from as commutator if . In the general case, we would have instead of this element. This commutator are formed as product of commutators of rearranged elements of . Therefore, we have a subdirect product of the copies of the group which has been equipped by condition (2). The multiplier from , which has at least generators
[TABLE]
Since and the product belongs to , then condition (2) holds. The assertion of a theorem on a recursive principle is easily generalized on multiple wreath product of groups.
Thus minimal total amount consists of at least generators for factors of group , generators for the dependent factor from and generators of the group which concludes the proof.
It should be noted that not all the elements of commutator subgroup, that has structure of the subdirect product, are independent by (2), at least one of them must be chosen carefully such that would be (2) satisfied. This implies the estimation .
Thus minimal total amount consists of at least generators for factors of group , generators for the dependent factor from and generators of the group which concludes the proof. ∎
We shall consider special case when a passive group of is a perfect group. Since we obtain a direct product of the copies of the group then according to Corollary 3.2. of Wiegold J. [27] [27]. More exact upper bound give us Theorem A. [27], which use a the size of the smallest simple image of . As it were studied by J. Wiegold if among group of product are same perfect groups then , where where is minimal prime non abelian group, which is image of [27]. Therefore, in this case our upper bound has the form
[TABLE]
Now we consider no regular wreath product, where active group can be both as infinite as finite and consider a centre of such group. This is generalization of Theorem 4.2 from the book [2] because action of is not non faithfully. Let be -space. If an non faithfully action by conjugation determines a shift of copies of from direct product then we have not standard wreath product that is semidirect product of and that is and the following Proposition holds. Let that is subgroup of that acts on as a pointwise stabiliser, that is kernel of action of on .
Denote the set of all the orbits of on by , if this set is finite then by . Recall that the direct product indexed by infinite set consists of all infinite sequences, and the direct sum consists only of sequences with finitely many elements distinct from zero.
Denote by the subgroup of diagonal subgroup [5] of functions which are constant on each orbit of action of on for unrestricted wreath product, and denote by the subgroup of diagonal of functions with the same property for restricted wreath product, where is number of non-trivial coordinates in base of wreath product.
Proposition 1**.**
A centre of the group is direct product of normal closure of centre of a diagonal of i.e. (), trivial an element, and intersection of with . In other words,
[TABLE]
where , .
*For restricted wreath product with non-trivial coordinate:
*
*In case of unrestricted wreath product we have:
*
Proof.
The elements of center subgroup have to satisfy the condition: such is constant on each orbit of action on i.e. for any . Also every : . Indeed the elements of form will not be changed by action of conjugation of any element from because any permutation elements coordinate of diagonal of does not change it. Also commutes with any element of base of because from centre of . Since the action is defined by shift on finite set , is not faithfully, then its kernel which confirms the proposition. Also elements of subgroup belongs to iff it acts trivial on .
If we have unrestricted wreath product then we show that the center is the subgroup of elements of form satisfying the following conditions:
is constant on each orbit of on , i.e. for any , where , and . 2. 2.
.
By the same reasons as for finite set of non-trivial elements on applied to as above It is obvious that if an element of satisfies the conditions 1) and 2), then the element belongs to the center .
On the contrary, if the element does not satisfy one of the conditions 1) or 2) then there exists that or acts non trivial on therefore , where is on coordinate. In case of violation of condition 1) there will be no commutation on the second coordinate. ∎
Example 1**.**
If then a centre . Since the action defined by shift on finite set is not faithfully, and its kernel is isomorphic to because cyclic shift on coordinates is invariant on .
*Generating set for commutator subgroup , where are presentation in additive form, is the following: *
[TABLE]
Thus, it consist of tableaux of form and relations for coordinate of any tableau is
[TABLE]
According to Theorem 3, for wreath product of abelian groups presented in multiplicative form, this relation has the form
[TABLE]
Let be infinite cyclic group acting on -letters alphabet. We denote -elements set by .
Example 2**.**
If then .
Proof.
Let us prove it applying Proposition 1. We note that in case of action on finite set there is not difference between restricted and unrestricted wreath products. Our formula (4) of centre of two groups acting on and wreath product will be used by us. This formula states that , where is kernel of acting on (in our such action by shifts of on is not faithful, the kernel of action on in subgroup because of in every shifts by cyclic the shifting point of returns on its initial place).
In a case of the new group we consider two groups again , where . According to our formula in (4) we obtain the centre therefore it remains to calculate the centre of the first group the kernel of its action. The kernel of action i.e. on is the group because of the action of on -elements set has the period .
Applying the formula (4) to we conclude that . The quotient is therefore the **quotient group **of by the centre is the following . Thus, centre is subgroup of finite index in . ∎
Example 3**.**
If is standard wreath product, then .
Let and be a restricted wreath product, where only non-trivial elements in coordinates of base of wreath product which are indexed by elements from , in degenerated case . acts on by left shift. Also acts transitively from left.
Remark 1**.**
The quotient group of a restricted wreath products by a commutator subgroup is isomorphic to . In previous conditions if then, . If , where , then . If is an unrestricted regular wreath product then .
Proof.
Consider the element of , where can be which acts on by left shift, then elements of commutator subgroup has form: , where . According to Corollary 4.9 [2] the commutator of elements , , satisfies the condition (2), which for case where is abelian such: where are non trivial coordinates from base of group, , . The commutator with the shifted coordinate appears within the -th coordinate position due to action of . According to Corollary 4.9 [2] the set of elements satisfying condition (2) forms a commutator. Also the equivalent condition can be formulated:
[TABLE]
Therefore, if is abelian an element of belongs to iff satisfy a condition: .
For unrestricted wreath product to show that all base of wreath product is in the commutator subgroup we choose an element , where is variable, and form a commutator which is an arbitrary element of wreath product base:
[TABLE]
For convenience we present active group in the additive form. Then to previous equality holds the following equations have to be satisfied: it implies that , , , … . Therefore . From other side we have so for all . That is impossible in the restricted case but possible in the unrestricted. As a corollary for restricted case. Thus, for unrestricted case all base of is in as a corollary .
Thus, this group is a subdirect product of with the additional condition (5) where, because for any element of the subgroup of coordinates there exists a surjective homomorphism acting upon , we can conclude that must be a subdirect product. The commutator subgroup is the kernel of homomorphism . More precisely, . In case the has the same structure, the homomorphism maps those elements of , as base of , which satisfy , i.e. the elements of in of the group . Thus, . To show that the properties of injectivity and surjectivity hold for this homomorphism, we chose the elements from which have the form that can be generator in canonical form of generating set of wreath product (1), where , corresponding to a a specimen from the quotient group . Also we chose independently, an element of the form corresponding to a specimen of the quotient group . Therefore, we must have a one-to-one correspondence between and . In this case, we obtain . The basic property of homomorphism for generators in canonical form (1) is obviously accomplished.
In the scenario when the action of upon the elements from the set is isomorphic to the action of elements on the set or the action of the elements on itself. In case we have .
For the group the same is true with and dependently of fact of or not can admits one or two generators. For the group it should be noted that the same is true. In the general case, can have only one generator more than the quotient by commutator has. ∎
3.3 Application to Geometric Groups of Diffeomorphisms Acting on the Möbius Band
Maksymenko S. [12] studied various different geometric objects and considered the actions of diffeomorphisms on them. We now consider the algebraic structure and the generators for a group of such type.
Let be a smooth compact connected surface, be either the real line or the circle, be a smooth map, and be the orbit of with respect to the right action of the group ) of diffeomorphisms of . We assume that at each critical point, the map is equivalent to a homogeneous polynomial in two variables without multiple factors. Conversely, it should be noted that every group obtained in the way described will be isomorphic to for some smooth map .
We will now specify the object and the construction of orbits under the action of the group diffeomorphisms. Let be a Morse function on a connected compact surface . Let and be the stabiliser and the orbit of with respect to the right action of the group of diffeomorphisms respectively.
Let denote the partition of whose elements are the connected components of level-sets of . It should be noted here that an element is called critical if it contains a critical point of , otherwise, the elements is called regular. It is well known within this research domain that the factor space , has a natural structure of a finite graph and is entitled the Kronrod-Reeb graph.
In our case, the diffeomorphisms act upon the Möbius band. Let now be a compact not orientable surface and be a volume from which has -form of the Möbius band. For a smooth map , denote by , the subgroup of diffeomorphisms (of ) which preserve , i.e. those satisfying the relation .
This group is associated with , which is a subgroup of stabiliser elements isotopic to the identity, i.e. , where the last isomorphism arises due to locally trivial bundle. Because there are a locally trivial bundle of homotopical groups with base and layer , this means that an exact sequence of homotopic groups and locally trivial bundle of homotopical groups give an explanation of the isomorphism . This locally trivial bundle of homotopical groups induce an exact sequence of homotopic groups of that bundle. Now since the group of diffeomorphisms is infinitely dimensional, we have found the connected components. This group is associated with the action of the group upon splitting into the function level lines .
In our case, the Morse function upon has two local extremes, which are the points of local maximum. Moreover, the Morse function must have critical sets with exactly one saddle point. The lines of levels around a local maximum point of have the form of coaxial circles, where these lines are determined by the polynomial with form . determined by the following homogeneous polynomial plus constant .
Being a little more precise, we will now consider the function of Morse on , which satisfies the following three properties:
is constant on the bound ; 2. 2.
there are two points of maximum at a saddle point; 3. 3.
at the two points of maximum, the values of the function are equal, i.e. at every critical point of , the germ of is equivalent to some homogeneous polynomial in two real variables without multiple factors.
Let now be a Morse function. connected was described by Maksymeko We note here that since the polynomial is homogeneous and has no multiple factors, it follows (from the celebrated Morse Lemma) that the space of all Morse maps belongs to the space of maps , where here only has isolated critical points and is either the real line or the circle .
Let be a group of diffeomorphisms which preserve the Morse function on . We know from the results of Maksymenko S. [12] that . Let there exist upon , identical regions (critical sets) which have, for example, the form of doubles, meaning that has two critical points in each and additionally, that are the domains of simple connectedness.
Consider a group of automorphisms of which are induced by the action of diffeomorphisms of a group which preserve the Möbius function . In other words, the here are from the stabiliser . We note that the generators with stabilisers with the right action by diffeomorphisms are . The generators of the cyclic group which define a shift are . Since the group action is continuous, this implies that the can realize only cyclic shifts, else one would change the domains of simplicity order.
Assume there are critical sets on . The automorphism group has exactly two subgroups which correspond to the rotation of , whose critical sets have not changed the order of and denotes the subgroup of automorphisms of critical sets. Analogously to previous investigations [12, 17, 19], there exists a short exact sequence , where the -group of automorphisms are Reeb’s (Kronrod-Reeb) graph [12] and hence is an orbit under action of diffeomorphism group.
The application of such an action results in a surjective epimorphism to a group , which has the left inverse and arises as a result of splitting. The automorphism group therefore has the structure of a semi-direct product . This is in agreement with the work of Maksymenko S. [12] who considers a similar scenario but for a different group and set (surface). Moreover, we note that this Morse function has critical sets on Möbius band with one saddle point.
The minimal set of generators for the fundamental group of the orbit of the function with respect to the action of the group of diffeomorphisms of non-moving is found in the next theorem.
We note that since the action of the group of diffeomorphisms on -critical sets of have been determined and described, the next thing to be considered is how this group has the correspondent to this action structure We will denote by , the fundamental group .
The first generator is since it realises the shift of the Möbius band. The second, , realises the rotation of domains of simple connectedness upon the Möbius band when passing through its twisting point. In other words, acts by the automorphism by permutation of sheets of doubles with the winding of outer adjacency on each double . Thus, we conclude that has infinite order.
Bounds on these domains are the lines of levels of function upon these domains, or in other words, the sets of points with . We shall now prove that the action of the first generator of the group defines the homomorphism in ..
Theorem 4**.**
The group with defined above homomorphism in has two generators and non trivial relations
[TABLE]
Also this group admits another presentation in generators and relations
[TABLE]
Proof.
From the description above, we have that the action of the first generator of the group, , defines the homomorphism in the ). There exists such a diffeomorphism from , called the Dehn twist, which has an infinite order since it makes a winding of outer adjacency (refer to Dehn twist in [7]) on the doubles , and it belongs to stabiliser . The generator must therefore correspond to this diffeomorphism.
Let denote the number of domains from . The action of the first generator , defines the homomorphism , where . It should be noted that this action could be equivalently represented as
[TABLE]
We extend the action of onto an arbitrary . This action involves sequential shifts of along the orbit on defined as . We have
[TABLE]
[TABLE]
We will now consider two sets. The first set is . As an example, if , then we have . Additionally, we find the numbers such that and the numbers that are congruent to these modulo .
The second set is . Similarly, we note that congruence modulo is of interest. As an example, if , then we have . Hence, , is the number of shifts defined by , while corresponds to the action of automorphism by permutation with winding of outer adjacency (Dehn twist in [7]) on the doubles . We conclude that therefore has an infinite order due to the Dehn twist. The value of the sign of the indicates the presence of a rotation of the doubles or its absence.
The relations for the non-minimal generating set is precisely
[TABLE]
This formulation yields that the relations for the minimal generating set is are
[TABLE]
where and since we transform our minimal generating set into a canonical generating set of the elements given by .
It is known that the generators of the semidirect product may be presented in the form . We now utilise this form to say that the generators of have the form of vectors , , . Making us of the operation of conjugation for , allows us to express the second generator of . Note that this is by , where is one of generators of and is generator of .
[TABLE]
Analogously, we find
[TABLE]
and, for a general term, we find
[TABLE]
word from due to conjugation by we can transform it to form canonocal form.
We show that there are not otherwise independent relations within the group . For this group , all canonical words have the form
[TABLE]
This form follows from the form of semidirect product elements. We now prove using (6) and reductions of reciprocals elements, that we may transform any finite non-trivial word of to the form (7). Additionally, we shall prove that the set of all words which maps trivially by a surjective homomorphism, with a kernel which is a normal closure of relations from the set from (6), are those coincides with trivial words in the group . For this purpose, we prove the transformation equivalence . In fact,
[TABLE]
It should be noted that the relation holds since automorphisms of and are independent of each other. Therefore, using this transformation, we can rearrange all the to be in the first position in the word over the alphabet .
We will show that normal closure of the relations , with , determines the kernel of the surjective homomorphism from to . The images of such a mapping are the canonical words (7) which have the form of . The form of these canonical words are determined by the semidirect product and its automorphisms. This mapping has the form
[TABLE]
where and
For this purpose, we use the transformation equivalence Making use this transformation allows us to therefore rearrange all to the first position in the word over the alphabet . Being a little more precise, this conversion is expressed as
[TABLE]
The kernel of surjective homomorphism contains exactly those words that, after mapping, becomes the trivial words in the group since those trivial words have the form .
Note that an arbitrary word from may be transformed due to (8) into , where for all . In fact, is the normal closure of the relations (6) and hence it consist of the words , with .
In particular, the word transforms by (8) to The words from the normal closure must therefore have zero sum of powers for each generator.
In the real group , with the reduced canonical words (7), where all generators have infinite order, only those words with zero exponents of generators are trivial. We have therefore found all such relations. which concludes the proof. ∎
It should be noted that the main property of the homomorphism , from onto , holds due to the same transformation (8). We now consider
[TABLE]
Thus, the main property of the homomorphism holds. It should be noted that such a relation is typical for a wreath product.
The homomorphism from the group into the group , determining a shift of generators of , can be equivalently presented by the matrix . For the case , has the form
[TABLE]
The generators of the subgroup can be presented in the form of vectors. These vectors are precisely
[TABLE]
In order to check the relation for the case , we consider
[TABLE]
Thus, and our relation holds.
It should be noted that the research of Maksymenko S. [12] tells us that a group of this kind arises as a fundamental group of the orbit for some Morse function which, as described above, acts upon the Möbius band .
Note that we have derived the relation . If we now multiply this from left on , we can equivalently express this as
[TABLE]
In a similar fashion, the multiplication from the right on obtains
[TABLE]
One such relation characterises the Bauslag-Soliter group. This is the group , which has the form where . Note the Bauslag-Soliter group has only one relation.
which is elements multiple of because we make a reduction by mod .
Corollary 1**.**
A centre of the group is a normal closure of sets: diagonal of , trivial an element and kernel of action by conjugation that is generated by (). In other words,
[TABLE]
where . Thus, Since the action is defined by conjugation and relation holds then the element commutates with every . So subgroup stabilise all of -space . Other words subgroup belongs to kernel of action . Besides the element will not be changed by action of conjugation of any element from because any permutation elements coordinate of diagonal of does not change it.
We generalize the result of Meldrum J. [2] because we consider not only the permutation wreath product groups, but the group does not have to act upon the set faithfully, hence is not regular wreath product. Recall that an action is said to be faithful if for every , there exists from -space such that . We consider wreath products with no regular actions of the active group .
Let be the -space. If an action by conjugation determines a shift of the copies of from the direct product then, we have not found a standard wreath product which is a semidirect product of and , i.e. . Thus, we observe the following corollary holds.
Corollary 2**.**
The centre of the group consists of normal closure of the diagonal of , a trivial element and the kernel of action by conjugation, i.e. . In other words,
[TABLE]
where , .
Proof.
The proof follows immediately from Corollary 1 by utilising the kernel of action of . The stabiliser of such an action over the -space is the subgroup . Additionally, the kernel of this action has elements from the diagonal of .
It should be noted, if we have where and , then the action is defined by the shift upon finite set . In this case, we find that is not faithful and its kernel is also isomorphic to since the cyclic shift on the coordinates is invariant on . Note that the action is defined by the shift on the finite set is not faithful and its kernel is isomorphic to . Additionally, within this kernel of action is the elements from the diagonal of which are isomorphic to . Thus, its centre is which concludes the proof. ∎
Remark 2**.**
The centre of a group of the form generates, by normal closure of: centre of diagonal of , trivial an element, and .
