On subgroups of free Burnside groups of large odd exponent.

Abstract: We prove that every noncyclic subgroup of a free

m

-generator Burnside group

B (m, n)

of odd exponent

n g g 1

contains a subgroup

H

isomorphic to a free Burnside group

B (i n f t y, n)

of exponent

n

and countably infinite rank such that for every normal subgroup

K

of

H

the normal closure

< K >^{B (m, n)}

of

K

in

B (m, n)

meets

H

in

K

. This implies that every noncyclic subgroup of

B (m, n)

is SQ-universal in the class of groups of exponent

n

.
