Powerfully nilpotent groups of maximal powerful class

Some Inequalities for Nilpotent Multipliers of Powerful p-Groups

Maximal Nilpotent Quotients of 3-manifold Groups

We show that if the lower central series of the fundamental group of a closed oriented 3-manifold stabilizes then the maximal nilpotent quotient is a cyclic group, a quaternion 2-group cross an odd order cyclic group, or a Heisenberg group. These groups are well known to be precisely the nilpotent fundamental groups of closed oriented 3-manifolds.

Amalgams of Nilpotent Groups of Class Two

In this paper we will prove analogues of B. Maier’s characterization of weak and strong embeddability of amalgams in N2 [12, 13] for the subvarieties of N2. We will also give analogues of D. Saracino’s characterization of weak and strong amalgamation bases [17], the author’s work on dominions [11] and on amalgamation bases in some varieties of nil-2 groups [8, 9]. Definitions will be recalled b...

Singular Spherical Maximal Operators on a Class of Step Two Nilpotent Lie Groups

Let H ∼= R ⋉ R be the Heisenberg group and let μt be the normalized surface measure for the sphere of radius t in R. Consider the maximal function defined by Mf = supt>0 |f ∗ μt|. We prove for n ≥ 2 that M defines an operator bounded on L(H) provided that p > 2n/(2n− 1). This improves an earlier result by Nevo and Thangavelu, and the range for L boundedness is optimal. We also extend the result...
