Abstract

Let F be a free group of arbitrary rank and let H be a finitely generated subgroup of F. Given a pseudovariety V of finite groups, i.e. a class of finite groups closed under taking subgroups, quotients and finitary direct products, we endow F with its pro-V topology. Our main result states that it is decidable whether H is pro-Su dense, where Su⊂S denote respectively the pseudovarieties of all finite supersolvable groups and all finite solvable groups. Our motivation stems from the following open problem: is it decidable whether H is pro-S dense?
