Parity features for classes of the infinite symmetric group

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

A conjugacy class in the infinite-symmetric group is said to have parity features if no finitary odd permutation is a product of two of its members. The conjugacy classes having parity features are determined. The role played by a property of this kind in determining products of conjugacy classes in any group in which every element is conjugate with its inverse is studied.
