Abstract:
A complete determination of when the elements of a fundamental group of a (countable) graph of profinite groups are conjugacy distinguished is given. By embedding an arbitrary fundamental group $G$ into one with profinite vertex groups and making use of the above result, questions on conjugacy separability of $G$ can be reduced to the solution of equations in the vertex groups of $G$.References
