Center and torsion of a quotient of the group of piecewise linear homeomorphisms of the real line

Abstract

In this article, we show that the group comprising piecewise-linear homeomorphisms of the real line with bounded slopes is not simple. Furthermore, we establish that a quotient of this group is torsion-free, and importantly, the center of that quotient group is indeed trivial.
