We show that if $\mathsf V$ is a semigroup pseudovariety containing the finite semilattices and contained in $\mathsf {DS}$, then it has a basis of pseudoidentities between finite products of regular pseudowords if, and only if, the…

Let $G$ be a finite group, and $c$ an element of $\mathbb{Z}\cup \{\infty\}$. A subgroup $H$ of $G$ is said to be {\it $c$-nilpotent} if it is nilpotent, and has nilpotency class at most $c$. A subset $X$ of $G$ is said to be {\it…

This paper studies effective separability for subgroups of finitely generated nilpotent groups and more broadly effective subgroup separability of finitely generated nilpotent groups. We provide upper and lower bounds that are polynomial…

It is proven that an infinite finitely generated group cannot be elementarily equivalent to an ultraproduct of finite groups of a given Pr\"ufer rank. Furthermore, it is shown that an infinite finitely generated group of finite Pr\"ufer…

The purpose of this paper is to contribute to the theory of profinite semigroups by considering the special class consisting of those all of whose finitely generated closed subsemigroups are countable, which are said to be locally…

We determine the maximal pseudovarieties of finite semigroups that satisfy an identity of the form $x_1 \dots x_n \approx \rho(x_1, \dots, x_n)$. Applying this classification, we further show that a pseudovariety of permutative semigroups…

A semigroup $S$ is called a permutable semigroup if $\alpha \circ \beta =\beta \circ \alpha$ is satified for all congruences $\alpha$ and $\beta$ of $S$. A semigroup is called a Putcha semigroup if it is a semilattice of archimedean…

Given a finitely generated residually finite group $G$, the residual finiteness growth $\text{RF}_G: \mathbb{N} \to \mathbb{N}$ bounds the size of a finite group $Q$ needed to detect an element of norm at most $r$. More specifically, if…

Let $G$ be a finite soluble group and $G^{(k)}$ the $k$th term of the derived series of $G$. We prove that $G^{(k)}$ is nilpotent if and only if $|ab|=|a||b|$ for any $\delta_k$-values $a,b\in G$ of coprime orders. In the course of the…

We show that any pseudofinite group with NIP theory and with a finite upper bound on the length of chains of centralisers is soluble-by-finite. In particular, any NIP rosy pseudofinite group is soluble-by-finite. This generalises, and…

In this paper, we introduce the relative $n$-tensor nilpotent degree of a finite group $G$ with respect to a subgroup $H$ of $G$. The aim of this paper is to investigate this concept and give some results on this topic.

By a result of Horv\'ath the equation solvability problem over finite nilpotent groups and rings is in P. We generalize his result, showing that the equation solvability over every finite supernilpotent Mal'cev algebra is in P. We also give…

We examine varieties of epigroups as unary semigroups, that is semigroups equipped with an additional unary operation of pseudoinversion. The article contains two main results. The first of them indicates a countably infinite family of…

Around 1980 commutator theory was generalized from groups to arbitrary algebras using the socalled term condition commutator. The semigroups that are abelian with respect to this commutator were classified by Warne (1994). We study what…

We give a characterization of the finite groups having nilpotent or abelian Hall $\pi$-subgroups which can easily be verified from the character table.

By the planarity rank of a semigroup variety we mean the largest number of generators of a free semigroup of a variety with respect to which the semigroup admits a planar Cayley graph. Since the time when L.M.Martynov formulated the problem…

Given a finite group $G,$ we denote by $\Delta(G)$ the graph whose vertices are the proper subgroups of $G$ and in which two vertices $H$ and $K$ are joined by an edge if and only if $G=\langle H,K\rangle.$ We prove that if there exists a…

Let $ n, q $ be positive integers. We show that if $ G $ is a finitely generated residually finite group satisfying the identity $ [x,_ny^q]\equiv 1, $ then there exists a function $ f(n) $ such that $ G $ has a nilpotent subgroup of finite…

We define a pseudometric on the set of all unbounded subsets of a metric space. The Kolmogorov quotient of this pseudometric space is a complete metric space. The definition of the pseudometric is guided by the principle that two unbounded…

Let $G$ be a unitriangular matrix group of nilpotency class at most ten. We show that the Identity Problem (does a semigroup contain the identity matrix?) and the Group Problem (is a semigroup a group?) are decidable in polynomial time for…
