finitely generated group


A finitely generated group is a group that has a finite generating setPlanetmathPlanetmath.

Every finite groupMathworldPlanetmath is obviously finitely generatedMathworldPlanetmath.Every finitely generated group is countable.

Any quotient (http://planetmath.org/QuotientGroup)of a finitely generated group is finitely generated.However, a finitely generated group may have subgroupsMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmaththat are not finitely generated.(For example, the free groupMathworldPlanetmath of rank 2 is generated by just two elements,but its commutator subgroupMathworldPlanetmath is not finitely generated.)Nonetheless, a subgroup of finite index in a finitely generated groupis necessarily finitely generated;a bound on the number of generatorsPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmath required for the subgroup is given bythe Schreier index formula (http://planetmath.org/ScheierIndexFormula).

The finitely generated groupsall of whose subgroups are also finitely generatedare precisely the groups satisfying the maximal condition.This includes all finitely generated nilpotent groupsMathworldPlanetmath and,more generally, all polycyclic groupsMathworldPlanetmath.

A group that is not finitely generatedis sometimes said to be infinitely generated.
