Abstract

We generalise various properties of quasiendomorphisms from groups with regular generic to small abelian groups. In particular, for a small stable abelian group such that no infinite definable quotient is connected-by-finite, the ring of quasi-endomorphisms is locally finite. Under some additional assumptions, it decomposes modulo some nil ideal into a sum of finitely many matrix rings.
