An example of a soluble group



Hi everyone!


I was wondering about

"a finitely generated soluble group G such that its commutator
subgroup is not finitely generated".

1. It's well known that a f.g. nilpotent group (actually a
polycyclic)
has the MAX condition (which is equivalent to all its subgroup being
f.g.).
In particular, G cannot be cyclic, abelian, nilpotent, supersolvable,
polycyclic.
2. Clearly, G cannot be finite.
3. Also, G cannot be simple (in this case G would be abelian).
4. I found some examples of non-f.g. soluble groups: UT(3,Q), Dih(Q),
Z(p^infty) wr Z(p^infty).

Can anyone help me with that?

Best regards,
Louis.
