Explicit constructions of loops with commuting inner mappings

Group Theory 2015-09-21 v1

Abstract

In 2004, Cs\"{o}rg\H{o} constructed a loop of nilpotency class three with abelian group of inner mappings. Until now, no other examples were known. We construct many such loops from groups of nilpotency class two by replacing the product xyxy with xyhxyh in certain positions, where hh is a central involution. The location of the replacements is ultimately governed by a symmetric trilinear alternating form.
