The Higher Commutator Subgroups of a Group
نویسنده
چکیده
It is not the object of this address to introduce you to new theories or to tell of great discoveries. Quite on the contrary; I intend to speak of unsolved problems and of conjectures. In order to describe these, certain concepts will have to be discussed ; and for obtaining a proper perspective it will be necessary to mention a number of theorems, some of them new. The proofs of the latter will be relegated to appendices so that the hurried reader may skip them easily. The bibliography is in no sense supposed to be complete. We just selected convenient references for facts mentioned and beyond that just enough to be a basis for further reading.

Special Subgroups of Gyrogroups: Commutators, Nuclei and Radical
A gyrogroup is a nonassociative group-like structure modelled on the space of relativistically admissible velocities with a binary operation given by Einstein's velocity addition law. In this article, we present a few of groups sitting inside a gyrogroup G, including the commutator subgyrogroup, the left nucleus, and the radical of G. The normal closure of the commutator subgyr...
متن کاملOn Symmetric Commutator Subgroups, Braids, Links and Homotopy Groups
In this paper, we investigate some applications of commutator subgroups to homotopy groups and geometric groups. In particular, we show that the intersection subgroups of some canonical subgroups in certain link groups modulo their symmetric commutator subgroups are isomorphic to the (higher) homotopy groups. This gives a connection between links and homotopy groups. Similar results hold for br...
متن کاملSOLVABILITY OF FREE PRODUCTS, CAYLEY GRAPHS AND COMPLEXES
In this paper, we verify the solvability of free product of finite cyclic groups with topological methods. We use Cayley graphs and Everitt methods to construct suitable 2-complexes corresponding to the presentations of groups and their commutator subgroups. In particular, using these methods, we prove that the commutator subgroup of $mathbb{Z}_{m}*mathbb{Z}_{n}$ is free of rank $(m-1)(n-1)$ fo...
متن کاملCommutator Theory for Congruence Modular Varieties
Introduction In the theory of groups, the important concepts of Abelian group, solvable group, nilpotent group, the center of a group and centraliz-ers, are all defined from the binary operation [x, y] = x −1 y −1 xy. Each of these notions, except centralizers of elements, may also be defined in terms of the commutator of normal subgroups. The commutator [M, N] (where M and N are normal subgrou...
متن کاملRELATIVE COMMUTATOR ASSOCIATED WITH VARIETIES OF n-NILPOTENT AND OF n-SOLVABLE GROUPS
A new notion of commutator was defined in any variety of Ω-groups A, relative to any fixed subvariety B of A [1]. This notion gives back the usual commutator of normal subgroups when A is the variety of groups and B the subvariety of abelian groups (see Section 2), but also the Peiffer commutator of normal precrossed submodules, when A is the variety of precrossed modules and B the subvariety o...
متن کاملA generalization of the probability that the commutator of two group elements is equal to a given element
The probability that the commutator of two group elements is equal to a given element has been introduced in literature few years ago. Several authors have investigated this notion with methods of the representation theory and with combinatorial techniques. Here we illustrate that a wider context may be considered and show some structural restrictions on the group.
