It answers some open questions on products of formations. The relation between omega-saturated and X-saturated formations is also discussed.461-470Reserva de todos los derechosFinite groupX-local formationSaturated formationX-saturated formationComposition formationOmega-saturated formationMATEMATICA APLICADAA question from the Kourovka Notebook on formation productsArtículo10.1017/S0004972700037862Abierto
