Closed nets in linear groups

The paper reviews the author’s results in the theory of elementary nets (carpets). In particular, closed (admissible) nets are investigated. For an elementary net (a net considered without the diagonal) of additive subgroups of an arbitrary commutative ring, the concepts of the derivative net, the closure of the net, and the net associated with the elementary group are introduced. Factorization of the elementary groups is proposed. This factorization is then used to construct an example of a closed (admissible) net which cannot be completed to a (complete) net. For a third-order elementary net σ of additive subgroups of a commutative ring, decomposition of an elementary transvection from the elementary group E (σ) is obtained.
