Let K be a field of positive characteristic p and KG the group algebra of a group G. It is known that if KG is Lie nilpotent then its upper (or lower) Lie nilpotency index is at most |G| + 1, where |G| is the order of the commutator subgroup. The class of groups G for which these indices are maximal or almost maximal have already been determined. Here we determine G for which upper (or lower) L...

By the Shepherd–Leedham-Green–McKay theorem on finite p-groups of maximal class, if a finite p-group of order pn has nilpotency class n−1, then it has a subgroup of nilpotency class at most 2 with index bounded in terms of p. Counterexamples to a rank analogue of this theorem are constructed, which give a negative solution to Problem 16.103 in Kourovka Notebook. Moreover, it is shown that there...

Let G be a finite p-group of nilpotency class 2. We find necessary and sufficient conditions on G such that each central automorphism of G fixes the center of G element-wise.

We describe maximal nilpotent subsemigroups of a given nilpotency class in the semigroup Ωn of all n × n real matrices with nonnegative coefficients and the semigroup Dn of all doubly stochastic real matrices.

In this paper we extend the algorithm for extraspecial groups in [12], and show that the hidden subgroup problem in nil-2 groups, that is in groups of nilpotency class at most 2, can be solved efficiently by a quantum procedure. The algorithm presented here has several additional features. It contains a powerful classical reduction for the hidden subgroup problem in nilpotent groups of constant...

In this paper, we have studied the properties of associated gyrogroup °G a given group G nilpotency class 3. We proved that if 3 does not divide order G, then ni...

The present work shows that Cayley automatic groups are semiautomatic and exhibits some further constructions of semiautomatic groups and in particular shows that every finitely generated group of nilpotency class 3 is semiautomatic.

In this paper, we have constituted 3-step general Fibonacci sequences in a nilpotent group with exponent p (p is a prime number) and nilpotency class 4 and given formulas to find the α term of the sequence.
