Malcev completion of free groups

Let $K$ be a field with $\operatorname{char} K=0$, $\hat{L}_n$ the complete free Lie algebra of $n$ variables $x_1,\dotsc,x_n$ and $\exp(\hat{L}_n)$ its associated group with the product given by BCH …

Units of the group algebra of a free group

Let $K$ be a field of characteristic zero and $F_n$ be a free group of rank $n$. What is known about the group of units $K[F_n]^\times$? In the case of $n=1$, there are only trivial units: $K[F_1]^\ti …

Semi-direct products and associated graded Lie algebras

Let $G$ and $H$ be groups and $G\ltimes H$ their semi-direct product given by $f\colon G\to \operatorname{Aut}(H)$ satisfying $f(g)=\operatorname{id}_H$ in $H/[H,H]\,$ for all $g\in G$. In this situat …

Is Malcev completion an embedding?

The Malcev completion of an abstract group $G$ over a field $k$ of characteristic zero is defined by $$\hat G = \mathbb{G}(\widehat{k[G]}) ,$$ the group-like part of the completed (by the augmentation …
