Abstract

We show that the Schur multiplier of a Noetherian group need not be finitely generated. We prove that the non-abelian tensor product of a polycyclic (resp. polycyclic-by-finite) group and a Noetherian group is a polycyclic (resp. polycyclic-by-finite) group. We also prove new versions of Schur's theorem.
