Abstract / Full Text
Let p be a prime number. Recall that a group G is said to be a residually finite p-group if for every non-identity element a of G there exists a homomorphism of the group G onto a finite p-group such that the image of a does not coincide with the identity. We obtain a necessary and sufficient condition for the free product of two residually finite p-groups with finite amalgamated subgroup to be a residually finite p-group. This result is a generalization of Higman’s theorem on the free product of two finite p-groups with amalgamated subgroup.
