Engel-like elements in infinite soluble groups

Left 3-engel Elements in Groups

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 is in the Baer radical of G. Also it is proved that 〈x, y〉 is nilpotent of class 4 for every two left 3-Engel elements in a group G.

un 2 00 4 Notes on Engel groups and Engel elements in groups . Some generalizations

Engel groups and Engel elements became popular in 50s. We consider in the paper the more general nil-groups and nil-elements in groups. All these notions are related to nilpotent groups and nilpo-tent radicals in groups. These notions generate problems which are parallel to Burnside problems for periodic groups. The first three theorems of the paper are devoted to nil-groups and Engel groups, w...

Sortable Elements in Infinite Coxeter Groups

In a series of previous papers, we studied sortable elements in finite Coxeter groups, and the related Cambrian fans. We applied sortable elements and Cambrian fans to the study of cluster algebras of finite type and the noncrossing partitions associated to Artin groups of finite type. In this paper, as the first step towards expanding these applications beyond finite type, we study sortable el...
