Abstract

In the current paper we announce a positive answerfor all prime numbersn>997 to the following problem set byAdian in Kourovka Notebook: Is it true that all proper normal sub-groups of the groupB(m,n) of prime periodn>665 are not freeperiodic groups? The current result also strengthens a similar re-sult of Olshanskiy for sufficiently large odd numbers n (n>1077).
