Journal of Mathematical Sciences Aims and scope Submit manuscript

With the help of the ping-pong lemma it is proved that some 2-generated subgroups of the group of infinite unitriangular integer matrices are free. Some of these examples are similar to the celebrated examples by W. Hołubowski (2003).
