Let $G$ be a group. Associate a directed graph $\vec{E}(G)$ (called the Engel digraph of $G$) with $G$ whose vertex set is $G$, with an arc $(x,y)$ if $[y, {}_k x]=1$ for some positive integer $k$, where $[y,{}_kx]$ is the iterated…

We keep the definition of intra-regularity (left regularity) of $po$-$\Gamma$-semigroups introduced in arXiv: 1511.00679 which is absolutely necessary for the investigation. Being able to describe the form of the elements of the principal…

Suppose that a finite group $G$ admits a soluble group of coprime automorphisms $A$. We prove that if, for some positive integer $m$, every element of the centralizer $C_G(A )$ has a left Engel sink of cardinality at most $m$ (or a right…

In this paper we prove that for each dimension $n$ there are only finitely many isomorphism classes of pairs of groups $(\Gamma,\mathrm{N})$ such that $\Gamma$ is an $n$-dimensional crystallographic group and $\mathrm{N}$ is a normal…

We give an affrmative answer to the question whether a residually finite Engel group satisfying an identity is locally nilpotent. More generally, for a residually finite group G with an identity, we prove that the set of right Engel…

The Engel graph of a finite group $G$ is a directed graph encoding the pairs of elements in $G$ satisfying some Engel word. Recent work of Lucchini and the third author shows that, except for a few well-understood cases, the Engel graphs of…

According to the Ringel-Green Theorem([G],[R1]), the generic composition algebra of the Hall algebra provides a realization of the positive part of the quantum group. Furthermore, its Drinfeld double can be identified with the whole quantum…

An Engel sink of an element $g$ of a group $G$ is a set ${\mathscr E}(g)$ such that for every $x\in G$ all sufficiently long commutators $[...[[x,g],g],\dots ,g]$ belong to ${\mathscr E}(g)$. (Thus, $g$ is an Engel element precisely when we…

We present a construction, which assigns two groupoids, $\Gugamma$ and $\Gmgamma$, to an inverse semigroup $\Gamma$. By definition, $\Gmgamma$ is a subgroupoid (even a reduction) of $\Gugamma$. The construction unifies known constructions…

In this paper we study left 3-Engel elements in groups. In particular, we prove that for any prime $p$ and any left 3-Engel element $x$ of finite $p$-power order in a group $G$, $x^p$ is in the Baer radical of $G$. Also it is proved that…
