On direct products of dihedral groups in locally finite groups

When studying infinite groups, as a rule, some finiteness conditions are imposed. For example, they require that the group be periodic, a Shunkov group, a Frobenius group, or a locally finite group. The concept of saturation allows us to effectively establish the internal structure of various classes of infinite groups. To date, a large array of results on groups saturated with various classes of finite groups has been obtained. Another important direction in the study of groups with saturation conditions is the study of groups saturated by direct products of various groups. Significant progress has been made in solving the problem of B. Amberg and L. S. Kazarin on periodic groups saturated with dihedral groups in the class of locally finite groups. It is proved that a locally finite group saturated by the direct product of a finite number of finite groups of a dihedron is isomorphic to the direct product of locally cyclic groups multiplied by an involution. It is also proved that a locally finite group saturated by the direct product of a finite number of finite dihedral groups is solvable.
