Abstract

The notion of PI-representable groups is introduced; these are subgroups of invertible elements of a PI-algebra over a field. It is shown that a PI-representable group has a largest locally solvable normal subgroup, and this subgroup coincides with the prime radical of the group. The prime radical of a finitely generated PI-representable group is solvable. The class of PI-representable groups is a generalization of the class of linear groups because in the groups of the former class the largest locally solvable normal subgroup can be not solvable.
