Statement

Suppose and are groups, and:

(where the occurs times) is a multihomomorphism. Define:

Then, is a completely divisibility-closed subgroup of .

Facts used

  1. Kernel of a multihomomorphism implies intersection of kernels of bihomomorphisms
  2. Intersection of kernels of bihomomorphisms implies completely divisibility-closed

Proof

The proof follows by combining Facts (1) and (2).
