Abstract

We classify by numerical invariants the finite subgroups H of a primary abelian group G for which every homomorphism or monomorphism of H into G, or every endomorphism of H, extends to an endomorphism of G. We apply these results to show that for finitely generated subgroups of general abelian groups, the extendibility of monomorphisms implies the extendibility of all homomorphisms.
