Abstract

A hypothesis stated in [16] is confirmed for the case of associative rings. The answers to some questions posed in the mentioned paper are also given. The square subgroup of a completely decomposable torsion-free abelian group is described (in both cases of associative and general rings). It is shown that for any such a group A, the quotient group modulo the square subgroup of A is a nil-group. Some results listed in [16] are generalized and corrected. Moreover, it is proved that for a given abelian group A, the square subgroup of A considered in the class of associative rings, is a characteristic subgroup of A.
