Let p be a prime number. We give the explicit structure of 2- nilpotent multiplier for each finite 2-generator p-group of class two. Moreover, 2-capable groups in that class are characterized.

We derive double coset formulae for the genus and extended genus of a finitely generated nilpotent group G, using the notions of bounded and bounded above automorphisms of $\prod G_S$, which are defined relative to a fixed fracture square…

We show that every finite group $G$ of size at least $3$ has a nilpotent subgroup of class at most $2$ and size at least $|G|^{1/32\log\log|G|}$. This answers a question of Pyber, and is essentially best possible.

For a $p$-group of order $p^n$, it is known that the order of $2$-nilpotent multiplier is equal to $|\mathcal{M}^{(2)}(G)|=p^{\f12n(n-1)(n-2)+3-s_2(G)}$ for an integer $s_2(G)$. In this article, we characterize all of non abelian $p$-groups…

We present a structural description of finite nilpotent groups of class at most $2$ using a specified number of subdirect and central products of $2$-generated such groups. As a corollary, we show that all of these groups are isomorphic to…

We calculate explicitly the normal zeta function of the free class two nilpotent group on four generators. This has Hirsch length ten.

Given $g\ge 1$, the number $n(g)$ of numerical semigroups $S \subset \N$ of genus $|\N \setminus S|$ equal to $g$ is the subject of challenging conjectures of Bras-Amor\'os. In this paper, we focus on the counting function $n(g,2)$ of…

For $G$ a finite group, let $d_2(G)$ denote the proportion of triples $(x, y, z) \in G^3$ such that $[x, y, z] = 1$. We determine the structure of finite groups $G$ such that $d_2(G)$ is bounded away from zero: if $d_2(G) \geq \epsilon >…

In this paper, we determine the structure of the nilpotent multipliers of all pairs $(G,N)$ of finitely generated abelian groups where $N$ admits a complement in $G$. Moreover, some inequalities for the nilpotent multipliers of pairs of…

Let G be a 2-group of order 2^n, n>5, and nilpotency class n-2. The invariants of such groups determined by their group algebras over the field of two elements are given in the paper.

A subset $S$ of a group $G$ is called an Engel set if, for all $x,y\in S$, there is a non-negative integer $n=n(x,y)$ such that $[x,\,_n y]=1$. In this paper we are interested in finding conditions for a group generated by a finite Engel…

Given a finite group $G$, we denote by $\nu(G)$ the probability that two randomly chosen elements of $G$ generate a nilpotent subgroup. We prove that if $\nu(G)>1/12,$ then $G$ is solvable.

We consider ordered tuples in finite groups generating nilpotent subgroups. Given an integer $q$ we consider the poset of nilpotent subgroups of class less than $q$ and its corresponding coset poset. These posets give rise to a family of…

We prove that if $G$ is finite 2-generated $p$-group of nilpotence class at most 2 then the group algebra of $G$ with coefficients in the field with $p$ elements determines $G$ up to isomorphisms.

Let $G$ be a finite 2-generated soluble group and suppose that $\langle a_1,b_1\rangle=\langle a_2,b_2\rangle=G$. If either $G^\prime$ is of odd order or $G^\prime$ is nilpotent, then there exists $b \in G$ with $\langle…

In this paper we continue the study of powerfully nilpotent groups. These are powerful $p$-groups possessing a central series of a special kind. To each such group one can attach a powerful nilpotency class that leads naturally to the…

A group $G$ is said to be $k$-generated if it has a generating set with $k$ elements. A positive integer $n$ is called a \emph{2-generated number} if every group of order $n$ is 2-generated. In this article, we establish an arithmetic…

Given a group word $w$ in $k$ variables, a finite group $G$ and $g\in G$, we consider the number $N_{w,G}(g)$ of $k$-tuples $g_1,\dots ,g_k$ of elements of $G$ such that $w(g_1,\dots ,g_k)=g$. In this work we study the functions $N_{w,G}$…

This work establishes a new probabilistic bound on the number of elements to generate finite nilpotent groups. Let $\varphi_k(G)$ denote the probability that $k$ random elements generate a finite nilpotent group $G$. For any $0 < \epsilon <…

The pro-isomorphic zeta function of a finitely generated nilpotent group $\Gamma$ is a Dirichlet generating function that enumerates finite-index subgroups whose profinite completion is isomorphic to that of $\Gamma$. Such zeta functions…
