Review text

The main result is the following theorem: Let \(G\) be a perfect group of finite Morley rank and let \(C_0\) be a definable central subgroup of \(G\) such that \(G/c_0\) is a universal linear algebraic group over an algebraically closed field; that is \(G\) is a perfect central extension of finite Morley rank of a universal linear algebraic group. Then \(C_0= 1\). This theorem was proven by the authors and \textit{A. Borovik} [J. Algebra 192, No. 2, 524-571 (1997; Zbl 0878.20003)] under the assumption of tameness.
