Abstract

We solve Problem 44 in the book by L. Fuchs, Infinite Abelian Groups, Vol. I, which asks for a classification of the groups G having the following property: if G is contained in the direct sum of reduced groups, then nG for some n > 0 is contained in a finite direct sum of these groups. A group has this property if and only if it has no unbounded factor groups that are direct sums of periodic cyclic groups. We also consider a generalization of this problem, when instead of the class of all reduced groups we take an arbitrary class of groups. We derive a number of properties of such groups. Bibliography: 8 titles.
