In group theory, a divisible group is an abelian group G such that for any positive integer n and any g in G, there exists y in G such that ny = g.
Since a divisible group is an injective module, Tor(G) is a direct summand of G.

 Free abelian group - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In abstract algebra, a free abelian group is an abelian group that has a "basis" in the sense that every element of the group can be written in one and only one way as a finite linear combination of elements of the basis, with integer coefficients.
A point on terminology: a free abelian group is not the same as a free group that is abelian; in fact the only free groups that are abelian are those of rank 0 (the trivial group) and rank 1 (the infinite cyclic group).
All free abelian groups are torsion-free, and all finitely generated torsion-free abelian groups are free abelian.

 Emerging Research Fronts Comments by Gennian Ge
The necessary conditions for the existence of a resolvable group divisible design with block size k have been proved to be sufficient for the case when k=3.
Resolvable group divisible designs are a special class of group divisible designs whose blocks can be partitioned into parallel classes each of which partitions the point set of the design.
Resolvable group divisible designs are useful in the constructions of both group divisible designs and other types of combinatorial designs.

 Current Commutation Relations, Continuous Tensor Products and Infinitely Divisible Group Representations, by R. F. ...   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
In the trivial case when the group is R, then the generator of the group defines a random variable, and the cyclic vector defines a probability measure on the line; then the theory reduces to the concept of infinite-divisibility of this measure.
The theory can be easily reformulated in terms of infinitely divisible positive-definite functions on groups, namely, the expectation of the unitary operators representing the group in the cyclic vector (known as the characteristic function of the cyclic representation), which is always a positive semi-definite continuous function on the group.
The concept of infinite divisibility in probability was introduced by di Finetti, and the classification of these was achieved by Lévy.

 Lee Lady: Finite Rank Torsion Free Modules over Dedekind Domains (a book)
The theory of finite rank torsion free abelian groups is full of results that depend on countability, or on having characteristic zero, or working over a ring whose quotient field is a perfect field, as well as proofs using quite specialized results from number theory.
And one becomes more aware of the fact that the theory of finite rank torsion free abelian groups is moving away from abelian group theory in general in much the same fashion that abelian group theory has moved away from general group theory.
Unlike the theory of torsion groups, the theory of finite rank torsion free modules is becoming something that fits in fairly well with the mainstream of commutative ring theory.

 Euler systems for higher K-theory of number fields, by Grzegorz Banaszak and Wojciech Gajda   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
Recall that for an abelian, p-torsion group A its group of divisible elements is by definition the intersection of the subgroups p^kA, for k>0.
In the case of n even positive the group of divisible elements of the p-torsion part of K_{2n}(Q) should vanish, what is equivalent to the classical conjecture of Kummer and Vandiver on the class numbers of cyclotomic fields cf.
The formula states that the number of divisible elements in the p-torsion part of the group K_{2n}(F), for n even positive and F an abelian, totally real number field equals the index of the group of cyclotomic elements of Deligne and Soule in the etale K-group K^{et}_{2n+1}(Z[{1/p}]).

 The Galois Group of a Polynomial
If f/k is a field extension, its galois group is the group of automorphisms of f that fix k.
If p(x) is an irreducible polynomial with coefficients in k, it also has a galois group, namely the galois group of its splitting field.
Since the size of the orbit, times the size of the stabilizing subgroup, gives the size of g, the order of the galois group is divisible by n, where n is the number of roots in p(x).

The torsion subgroup is the set of sequences of elements in these groups for which the order of the terms in the sequence stays bounded.
The existence of a guaranteed splitting is equivalent to the vanishing of the cohomology group H^2(G/T, T), but inasmuch as it is not possible (as far as I know!) to "classify" all torsion-free groups it is unlikely one could hope to compute their cohomology.
But G itself is not a divisible group, so there is no nonzero homomorphism from Q to G (there is no possible image for 1).
