On the lower central series of Baumslag-Solitar groups

Group Theory 2020-09-03 v1

Abstract

We find the lower central series for residually nilpotent Baumslag-Solitar groups, and find the intersection of all terms of the lower central series. Also, we find non-abelian Bauslag-Solitar groups for which the lower central series has length 2. For some Baumslag-Solitar groups a connection is found between the intersection of all subgroups of finite index and the intersection of all terms of the lower central series.
