A nilpotent quotient algorithm for L-presented groups
نویسندگان
چکیده
The main part of this paper contains a description of a nilpotent quotient algorithm for L-presented groups and a report on applications of its implementation in the computer algebra system GAP. The appendix introduces two new infinite series of L-presented groups. Apart from being of interest in their own right, these new L-presented groups serve as examples for applications of the nilpotent quotient algorithm.

A Nilpotent Quotient Algorithm for Certain Infinitely Presented Groups and its Applications
We describe a nilpotent quotient algorithm for a certain type of infinite presentations: the so-called finite L-presentations. We then exhibit finite L-presentations for various interesting groups and report on the application of our nilpotent quotient algorithm to them. As result, we obtain conjectural descriptions of the lower central series structure of various interesting groups including t...
متن کاملnilpotent quotients in finitely presented Lie rings †
A nilpotent quotient algorithm for finitely presented Lie rings over Z (LIENQ) is described. The paper studies the graded and non-graded cases separately. The algorithm computes the so-called nilpotent presentation for a finitely presented, nilpotent Lie ring. A nilpotent presentation consists of generators for the abelian group and the products expressed as linear combinations for pairs formed...

متن کاملA Nilpotent Quotient Algorithm for Graded Lie Rings
A nilpotent quotient algorithm for graded Lie rings of prime characteristic is described. The algorithm has been implemented and applications have been made to the investigation of the associated Lie rings of Burnside groups. New results about Lie rings and Burnside groups are presented. These include detailed information on groups of exponent 5 and 7 and their associated Lie rings. Appeared: J...
متن کاملFitting quotients of finitely presented abelian-by-nilpotent groups
We show that every finitely generated nilpotent group of class 2 occurs as the quotient of a finitely presented abelian-by-nilpotent group by its largest nilpotent normal subgroup.
