Group rings satisfying generalized Engel conditions

Let R be a commutative ring with unity of characteristic r≥0 and G be a locally finite group. For each x and y in the group ring RG define [x,y]=xy-yx and inductively via [x ,_( n+1)  y]=[[x ,_( n)  y]  , y]. In this paper we show that necessary and sufficient conditions for RG to satisfies [x^m(x,y)   ,_( n(x,y))  y]=0 is: 1) if r is a power of a prime p, then G is a locally nilpotent group an...

On Groups admitting a Word whose Values are Engel

Let m,n be positive integers, v a multilinear commutator word and w = vm. We prove that if G is a residually finite group in which all wvalues are n-Engel, then the verbal subgroup w(G) is locally nilpotent. We also examine the question whether this is true in the case where G is locally graded rather than residually finite. We answer the question affirmatively in the case where m = 1. Moreover...

Engel Graph Associated with a Group

Let G be a non-Engel group and let L(G) be the set of all left Engel elements of G. Associate with G a graph EG as follows: Take G\L(G) as vertices of EG and join two distinct vertices x and y whenever [x,k y] 6= 1 and [y,k x] 6= 1 for all positive integers k. We call EG, the Engel graph of G. In this paper we study the graph theoretical properties of EG.
