Abstract:

Let $LFC$ be the class of all locally $FC$-groups. We study the existentially closed groups in the class $LF{C_p}$ of all $LFC$-groups $H$ whose torsion subgroup $T(H)$ is a $p$-group. Differently from the situation in $LFC$, every existentially closed $LF{C_p}$-group is already closed in $LF{C_p}$, and there exist ${2^{{\aleph _0}}}$ countable closed $LF{C_P}$-groups $G$. However, in the countable case, $T(G)$ is up to isomorphism always a unique locally finite $p$-group with similar properties as the unique countable existentially closed locally finite $p$-group ${E_p}$.
