Certain residual properties of HNN-extensions with normal associated subgroups

Let E be the HNN-extension of a group B with subgroups H and K associated according to an isomorphism varphicolon H to K. Suppose that H and K are normal in B and (H cap K)varphi = H cap K. Under these assumptions, we prove necessary and sufficient conditions for E to be residually a C-group, where C is a class of groups closed under taking subgroups, quotient groups, and unrestricted wreath products. Among other things, these conditions give new facts on the residual finiteness and the residual p-finiteness of the group E.
