Abstract:

This paper characterizes quasi-pure projective (q.p.p.) and quasi-pure injective (q.p.i.) p-groups, and hence characterizes all such (abelian) torsion groups. A p-group is q.p.i. if and only if it is the direct sum of a divisible group and a torsion complete group. A nonreduced p-group is q.p.p. if and only if it is the direct sum of a divisible group and a bounded group; a reduced p-group is q.p.p. if and only if it is a direct sum of cyclic groups.
