Abstract
The Andrews-Curtis conjecture asserts that, for a free group of rank and a free basis , any normally generating tuple is Andrews-Curtis equivalent to . This equivalence corresponds to the actions of and of on normally generating -tuples. The equivalence corresponding to the action of on generating -tuples is called Nielsen equivalence. The conjecture for arbitrary finitely generated group has its own importance to analyse potential counter-examples to the original conjecture. We study the Andrews-Curtis and Nielsen equivalence in the class of finitely generated groups for which every maximal subgroup is normal, including nilpotent groups and Grigorchuk groups.
