Abstract

According to Mazhuga’s theorem, the fundamental group H of anyconnected surface, possibly except for the Klein bottle, is a retract of each finitely generated group containing H as a verbally closed subgroup. We prove that the Klein bottle group is indeed an exception but has a very close property.
