%0 Journal Article %T Factorizing profinite groups into two Abelian subgroups %A Wolfgang Herfort %J International Journal of Group Theory %D 2013 %I University of Isfahan %X We prove that the class of profinite groups $G$ that have a factorization $G=AB$with $A$ and $B$ abelian closed subgroups, is closed under taking strict projective limits.This is a generalization of a recent result by K.H.~Hofmann and F.G.~Russo.As an application we reprove their generalization of Iwasawa's structure theorem forquasihamiltonian pro-$p$ groups. %K group factorization %K pro-$p$ groups %K limits %U http://www.theoryofgroups.ir/?_action=showPDF&article=2341&_ob=935b81d6227dda83e4ad6d3d1bc07f37&fileName=full_text.pdf.
