A focal subgroup theorem for outer commutator words

Group Theory 2011-12-30 v3

Abstract

Let GG be a finite group of order pamp^am, where pp is a prime and mm is not divisible by pp, and let PP be a Sylow pp-subgroup of GG. If ww is an outer commutator word, we prove that Pw(G)P\cap w(G) is generated by the intersection of PP with the set of mmth powers of all values of ww in GG
