Residual finiteness of groups and topological dynamics
A. V. Egorov M. V. Lomonosov Moscow State University
Abstract:
The property of residual finiteness of finitely generated groups admits an interpretation in terms of topological dynamics. In this paper it is proved that a finitely generated group is residually finite if and only if it is isomorphic to a group whose action on some compact set is efficient and distal.
