Left 3-engel Elements in Groups
نویسنده
چکیده
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.

Engel Elements in Groups and Dynamical Systems Defining Nilpotency in Finite Groups
A relationship between two natural dynamical systems on groups is established thereby giving a new characterization of Engel elements. Using this connection, various closure properties for the sets of left and right Engel elements are established. Some other dynamical systems and their relationship with Engel elements and nilpotency for finite groups are also considered.
متن کاملResults on Engel Fuzzy Subgroups
In the classical group theory there is an open question: Is every torsion free n-Engel group (for n ≥ 4), nilpotent?. To answer the question, Traustason [11] showed that with some additional conditions all 4-Engel groups are locally nilpotent. Here, we gave some partial answer to this question on Engel fuzzy subgroups. We show that if μ is a normal 4-Engel fuzzy subgroup of ...
متن کاملAlgorithmic Decidability of Engel's Property for Automaton Groups
We consider decidability problems associated with Engel’s identity ([· · · [[x, y], y], . . . , y] = 1 for a long enough commutator sequence) in groups generated by an automaton. We give a partial algorithm that decides, given x, y, whether an Engel identity is satisfied. It succeeds, importantly, in proving that Grigorchuk’s 2-group is not Engel. We consider next the problem of recognizing Eng...
متن کاملOn the Right and Left 4-engel Elements
In this paper we study left and right 4-Engel elements of a group. In particular, we prove that 〈a, a〉 is nilpotent of class at most 4, whenever a is any element and b are right 4-Engel elements or a are left 4-Engel elements and b is an arbitrary element of G. Furthermore we prove that for any prime p and any element a of finite p-power order in a group G such that a ∈ L4(G), a, if p = 2, and ...
متن کاملRobert Fitzgerald Morse: Solvable Engel Groups 1 Solvable Engel Groups with Nilpotent Normal Closures
In this paper we investigate certain solvable (n+1)-Engel groups and bounded left Engel groups. We show that these (n + 1)-Engel groups can be characterized as those groups in which the normal closure of each element in the group is nilpotent of class at most n. Similarly, the bounded left Engel groups investigated can be characterized as those groups in which the normal closure of each element...
