For example, if λ is a limit ordinal, then for a group G the completion functor LλG determines the notion of Lλ-purity. Another way of constructing a type of purity, called p w -purity, is defined using the functor Q α<λ(G/p G). Properties of this second type of purity are studied; for example, it is shown to be hereditary if and only if λ has countable cofinality. In addition, Lλ and p <λ w -purity are compared in a variety of contexts, for example, in the category of Warfield groups.

This property is related to b/a being integral over R, where a and b are elements of R that define M . We also investigate M/t(M) and determine its minimum number of generators.
