Nilpotent Groups
The articles [2], [3], [4], [6], [7], [5], [8], [9], [10], and [1] provide the notation and terminology for this paper. For simplicity, we use the following convention: x is a set, G is a group, A, B, H, H1, H2 are subgroups of G, a, b, c are elements of G, F is a finite sequence of elements of the carrier of G, and i, j are elements of N. One can prove the following propositions: (1) ab = a · ...
متن کاملCommutators and Squares in Free Nilpotent Groups
In a free group no nontrivial commutator is a square. And in the free group F2 = F (x1, x2) freely generated by x1, x2 the commutator [x1, x2], is never the product of two squares in F2, although it is always the product of three squares. Let F2,3 = 〈x1, x2〉 be a free nilpotent group of rank 2 and class 3 freely generated by x1, x2. We prove that in F2,3 = 〈x1, x2〉, it is possible to write cert...
متن کاملSolving equations in free nilpotent groups
In this paper we show that any system of equations over a free nilpotent group of class c is either unitary or nullary. In fact, such a system either has a most general solution (akin to the most general solution of a system of linear diophantine equations), or every solution has a proper generalization. In principle we provide an algorithm for determining whether or not a most general solution...
متن کاملInfinitely Generated Free Nilpotent Groups: Completeness of the Automorphism Groups
Baumslag conjectured in the 1970s that the automorphism tower of a finitely generated free group (free nilpotent group) must be very short. Dyer and Formanek [9] justified the conjecture concerning finitely generated free groups in the “sharpest sense” by proving that the automorphism group Aut(Fn) of a non-abelian free group Fn of finite rank n is complete. Recall that a group G is said to be ...
متن کاملPseudocomplete Nilpotent Groups
Scmicomplctc nilpotcnt groups, that is, nilpotent groups with no outer automorphisms, have been of interest for many years. In this paper pscudocomplete nilpotent groups, that is, nilpotent groups in which the automorphism group and the inner automorphism group arc isomorphic (not equal), are constructed. When suitable conditions are placed on the pseudocomplete nilpotent group, the quotient of...
