%0 Journal Article %T On Bounded Packing in Polycyclic Groups %A Jordan Sahattchieve %J Mathematics %D 2010 %I arXiv %X In this paper, we show that any subgroup of a semidirect product of Z^n with Z has bounded packing as long as the action of Z on Z^n is by diagonalizable automorphisms all of whose eigenvalues are real. We use this result to show that any subgroup in a polycyclic group of length 3 or less has bounded packing. We also introduce the notion of coset growth and obtain a bound for the coset growth of subgroup H= in the semidirect product of Z^2 with Z. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/1011.5953v4
