We classify a large class of small groups of finite Morley rank: $N_\circ^\circ$-groups which are the infinite analogues of Thompson's $N$-groups. More precisely, we constrain the $2$-structure of groups of finite Morley rank containing a definable, normal, non-soluble, $N_\circ^\circ$-subgroup.
We prove a general dichotomy theorem for groups of finite Morley rank with solvable local subgroups and of Prüfer p-rank at least 2, leading either to some p-strong embedding, or to the Prüfer p-rank being exactly 2.
We prove that groups definable in o-minimal structures have Cartan subgroups, and only finitely many conjugacy classes of such subgroups. We also delineate with precision how these subgroups cover the ambient group, in general very largely in terms of the dimension.
We give two slight generalizations of results of Poizat about elementary theories of groups obtained by free constructions. The first-one concerns the non-superstability of such groups in most cases, and the second-one concerns the connectedness of most free products of groups.
We prove a non-generosity theorem for proper cosets in groups of finite Morley rank and elaborate on the theory of Weyl groups in this context.
We consider groups of finite Morley rank with solvable local subgroups of even and mixed types. We also consider miscellaneous aspects of small groups of finite Morley rank of odd type.
We build two non-abelian CSA-groups in which maximal abelian subgroups are conjugate and divisible.
We lay down the fundations of the theory of groups of finite Morley rank in which local subgroups are solvable and we proceed to the local analysis of these groups. We prove the main Uniqueness Theorem, analogous to the Bender method in finite group theory, and derive its corollaries. We also consider homogeneous cases as well as torsion.
We show that a minimal nonalgebraic simple groups of finite Morley rank has Prufer rank at most 2, and eliminates tameness from Cherlin and Jaligot's past work on minimal simple groups. The argument given here begins with the strongly embedded minimal simple configuration of Borovik, Burdges and Nesin. The 0-unipotence machinery of Burdges's thesis is used to analyze configurations involving nonabelian intersections of Borel subgroups. The number theoretic punchline of Cherlin and Jaligot has been replaced with a new genericity argument.
We prove that existentially closed $CSA$-groups have the independence property. This is done by showing that there exist words having the independence property relatively to the class of torsion-free hyperbolic groups.
