In 1904, Issai Schur proved the following result. If $G$ is an arbitrary group such that $G/\Z(G)$ is finite, where $\Z(G)$ denotes the center of the group $G$, then the commutator subgroup of $G$ is finite. A partial converse of this…

The Schur Theorem says that if $G$ is a group whose center $Z(G)$ has finite index $n$, then the order of the derived group $G'$ is finite and bounded by a number depending only on $n$. In the present paper we show that if $G$ is a finite…

The Baer theorem states that for a group $G$ finiteness of $G/Z_i(G)$ implies finiteness of $\gamma_{i+1}(G)$. In this paper we show that if $G/Z(G)$ is finitely generated then the converse is true.

One of the classic results of group theory is the so-called Schur theorem. It states that if the central factor-group $G/\zeta(G)$ of a group $G$ is finite, then its derived subgroup $[G,G]$ is also finite. This result has numerous…

Let $G$ be a finite group. If $\Gamma$ is a permutation group with $G_{right}\leq\Gamma\leq Sym(G)$ and $\mathcal{S}$ is the set of orbits of the stabilizer of the identity $e=e_{G}$ in $\Gamma$, then the $\mathbb{Z}$-submodule…

M.R.Jones and J.Wiegold in [3] have shown that if $G$ is a finite group with a subgroup $H$ of finite index $n$, then the $n$-th power of Schur multiplier of $G$, $M(G)^n$, is isomorphic to a subgroup of $M(H)$. In this paper we prove a…

It is a longstanding conjecture that for a finite group $G$, the exponent of the second homology group $H_2(G, \mathbb{Z})$ divides the exponent of $G$. In this paper, we prove this conjecture for $p$-groups of class at most $p$, finite…

R. Baer has proved that if the factor-group G/{\zeta}_{n}(G) of a group G by the member {\zeta}_{n}(G) of its upper central series is finite (here n is a positive integer) then the member {\gamma}_{n+1}(G) of the lower central series of G…

An automorphism of a group G is called an IA-automorphism if it induces the identity automorphism on the abelianized group G/G'. Let IA(G) denote the group of all IA-automorphisms of G. We classify all finitely generated nilpotent groups G…

Let $\gamma_i(G)$ and $Z_i(G)$ denote the $i$-th terms of the lower and upper central series of a group $G$, respectively. P. Hall showed that if $\gamma_{i+1}(G)$ is finite then the index $|G:Z_{2i}(G)|$ is finite. We prove that the same…

A finite group $G$ is called a Schur group if every $S$-ring over $G$ is schurian, i.e. associated in a natural way with a subgroup of $\sym(G)$ that contains all right translations. We prove that every nonabelian nilpotent Schur group…

Schur's Theorem and its generalisation, Baer's Theorem, are distinguished results in group theory, connecting the upper central quotients with the lower central series. The aim of this paper is to generalise these results in two different…

A longstanding problem attributed to I. Schur says that for a finite group $G$, the exponent of the second homology group $H_2(G, \mathbb{Z})$ divides the exponent of $G$. In this paper, we prove this conjecture for finite nilpotent groups…

Let $\gamma_n=[x_1,\dots,x_n]$ be the $n$th lower central word. Denote by $X_n$ the set of $\gamma_n$-values in a group $G$ and suppose that there is a number $m$ such that $|g^{X_n}|\leq m$ for each $g\in G$. We prove that…

A finite group $G$ is a CG-group if $|{\rm Cent}(G) | = | G' |+2$, where $G'$ is the commutator subgroup and Cent$(G)$ is the set of distinct element centralizers of $G$. In this paper we give some results on CG-groups. We also give a…

A finite group $G$ is called a Schur group, if any Schur ring over $G$ is associated in a natural way with a subgroup of $Sym(G)$ that contains all right translations. Recently, the authors have completely identified the cyclic Schur…

A group $G$ is said to be $\frac{3}{2}$-generated if every nontrivial element belongs to a generating pair. It is easy to see that if $G$ has this property then every proper quotient of $G$ is cyclic. In this paper we prove that the…
