An example of a countable Butler group that is not a pure subgroup of a completely decomposable group was published in 1986. Recently, an error in the proof was discovered. This note includes a corrected argument, as well as a proof that this group has no pure precobalanced subgroups of rank one.
Nel 1986 fu pubblicato un esempio di un gruppo di Butler numerabile che non è un sottogruppo puro di un gruppo completamente decomponibile. Recentemente, si è scoperto un errore nella dimostrazione. In questa nota la dimostrazione viene corretta, e si prova anche che questo gruppo non ha sottogruppi puri precobilanciati di rango uno.
