Nov 2, 2019 at 18:24 comment added W4cc0 @verret second paragraph, but anyway this property is known (but I do not have a proof of it) to be inherited by factor groups of periodic groups satisfying it
Nov 2, 2019 at 18:22 comment added verret Every factor group of which $G$? An arbitrary $G$ as in the first paragraph, or the more specific one in the second paragraph?
Nov 2, 2019 at 17:23 comment added YCor I've edited to clarify, feel free to revert if you don't like it. Also it would be helpful to provide the reference to the Russian paper.

Nov 2, 2019 at 17:16 comment added W4cc0 @YCor yes "cartesian product"="unrestricted direct product". The sentence is: "For every cyclic subgroup of prime order there is a complement". This sentence should be satisfied in every factor group.
Nov 2, 2019 at 17:09 comment added YCor What do you mean by "this property holds all factors groups"? the previous sentence does not refer to any quotient group. Maybe you mean the claim that every normal subgroup has a "complement"?
Nov 2, 2019 at 17:05 comment added YCor I think "cartesian product" is a word used mostly in Russian to mean "unrestricted direct product". I'm rather familiar to using "cartesian" to mean the setwise product, and "direct" referring to the choice of law (a semidirect product $A\ltimes B$ is another group law on the cartesian product $A\times B$).
