A coprime commutator in a profinite group $G$ is an element of the form $[x,y]$, where $x$ and $y$ have coprime order and an anti-coprime commutator is a commutator $[x,y]$ such that the orders of $x$ and $y$ are divisible by the same…

The structure of groups for which certain sets of commutator subgroups are finite is investigated, with a particular focus on the relationship between these groups and those with finite derived subgroup.

In this paper, we consider some generalized commutator equations in a finite group and show that the number of solutions of such equations are characters of that group. We also obtain explicit formula for this character, considering the…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $A$, $B$ and $D$ be conjugacy classes of $ G$ with $D\subseteq AB=\{xy\mid x\in A, y\in B\}$. Denote by $\eta(AB)$ the number of distinct conjugacy classes such that $AB$ is the union of those. Set ${\bf…

We establish several new bounds for the number of conjugacy classes of a finite group, all of which involve the maximal number c of conjugacy classes of a normal subgroup fixed by some element of a suitable subset of the group. To apply…

We consider profinite groups in which all commutators are contained in a union of finitely many procyclic subgroups. It is shown that if G is a profinite group in which all commutators are covered by m procyclic subgroups, then G possesses…

It is shown that there exists a finitely generated infinite simple group of infinite commutator width, and that the commutator width of a finitely generated infinite boundedly simple group can be arbitrarily large. Besides, such groups can…

The problem of finding the number of ordered commuting tuples of elements in a finite group is equivalent to finding the size of the solution set of the system of equations determined by the commutator relations that impose commutativity…

In 1968, John Thompson proved that a finite group G is solvable if and only if every 2-generator subgroup of G is solvable. In this paper, we prove that solvability of a finite group G is guaranteed by a seemingly weaker condition: G is…

Let $G$ be a group. Two elements $x,y \in G$ are said to be in the same $z$-class if their centralizers in $G$ are conjugate within $G$. Consider $\mathbb F$ a perfect field of characteristic $\neq 2$, which has a non-trivial Galois…

Let $G$ be a finite $p$-group whose derived subgroup $G'$ can be generated by $2$ elements. If $G'$ is abelian, Guralnick proved that every element of $G'$ is a commutator. In this paper, we prove that the condition that $G'$ should be…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $N(G)$ be the set of its conjugacy class sizes. In the 1980's Thompson conjectured that the equality $N(G)=N(S)$, where $Z(G)=1$ and $S$ is simple, implies the isomorphism $G\simeq S$. In a series of papers of…

Let $G$ be a finite group and let $k \geq 2$. We prove that the coprime subgroup $\gamma_k^*(G)$ is nilpotent if and only if $|xy|=|x||y|$ for any $\gamma_k^*$-commutators $x,y \in G$ of coprime orders (Theorem A). Moreover, we show that…

By a coprime commutator in a profinite group $G$ we mean any element of the form $[x, y]$, where $x,y\in G$ and $(|x|,|y|)=1$. It is well-known that the subgroup generated by the coprime commutators of $G$ is precisely the pronilpotent…

Let $G$ be an arbitrary group such that $G/\Z(G)$ is finite, where $\Z(G)$ denotes the center of the group $G$. Then $\gamma_2(G)$, the commutator subgroup of $G$, is finite. This result is known as Shur's theorem (the Schur's theorem). In…

We show that every definable group G in an o-minimal structure is definably finitely generated. That is, G contains a finite subset that is not included in any proper definable subgroup. This provides another proof, and a generalization to…

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…

An integral of a group $G$ is a group $H$ whose commutator subgroup is isomorphic to $G$. In this paper, we prove that the integrability of a finite group is a decidable problem.

We show that the number of conjugacy classes of intersections $A\cap B^g$, for fixed finitely generated subgroups $A, B<F$ of a free group, is bounded above in terms of the ranks of $A$ and $B$; this confirms an intuition of Walter Neumann.…
