On Bousfield problem for the class of metabelian groups

Abstract

The homological properties of localizations and completions of metabelian groups are studied. It is shown that, for R= Q or R= Z/n and a finitely presented metabelian group G, the natural map from G to its R-completion induces an epimorphism of homology groups H2(-,R). This answers a problem of A.K. Bousfield for the class of metabelian groups.
