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...

A Schmidt group is a non-nilpotent finite group in which each proper subgroup is nilpotent. Each Schmidt group G can be described by three parameters p, q and v, where p and q are different primes and v is a natural number, v ≥ 1. Denote by S the class of all Schmidt groups which have the same parameters p, q and v. It is shown in this paper that the class S can be characterized by the properti...

We prove Beurling's theorem and L p − L q Morgan's theorem for step two nilpotent Lie groups. These two theorems together imply a group of uncertainty theorems.

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.

Introduction. One of the first things we learn in abstract algebra is the notion of a cyclic group. For every positive integer n, we have Zn, the group of integers modulo n. When n is prime, a simple application of Lagrange’s theorem yields that this is the only group of order n. We may ask ourselves: what other positive integers have this property? In this spirit we call a positive integer n a...

We investigate the properties of Lie algebras of characteristic p which satisfy the Engel identity xy" = 0 for some n < p. We establish a criterion which (when satisfied) implies that if a and b are elements of an Engel-n Lie algebra L then abn~2 generates a nilpotent ideal of I. We show that this criterion is satisfied for n = 6, p = 1, and we deduce that if G is a finite m-generator group of ...

We determine the torsion subgroup of the group of endotrivial modules for a finite solvable group in characteristic p. We also prove that our result would hold for p-solvable groups, provided a conjecture can be proved about the case of p-nilpotent groups.

We reduce the graph isomorphism problem to 2-nilpotent p-groups isomorphism problem (and to finite 2-nilpotent Lie algebras the ring Z/pZ. Furthermore, we show that classifying problems in categories graphs, finite 2-nilpotent p-groups, and 2-nilpotent Lie algebras over Z/pZ are polynomially equivalent and wild.

In the first part of this paper we prove without using the transfer or characters the equivalence of some conditions, each of which would imply p-nilpotence of a finite group G. The implication of p-nilpotence also can be deduced without the transfer or characters if the group is p-constrained. For p-constrained groups we also prove an equivalent condition so that O ′ (G)P should be p-nilpotent...
