Equations in nilpotent groups [PDF]
We show that there exists an algorithm to decide any single equation in the Heisenberg group in finite time. The method works for all two-step nilpotent groups with rank-one commutator, which includes the higher Heisenberg groups. We also prove that the decision problem for systems of equations is unsolvable in all non-abelian free nilpotent groups.

Countingp-groups and nilpotent groups [PDF]
What can one say about the function \(f(p,n)\) that counts (up to isomorphism) groups of order \(p^n\), where \(p\) is a prime, and \(n\) is an integer? \textit{G. Higman} [Proc. Lond. Math. Soc. (3) 10, 24-30 (1960; Zbl 0093.02603)] and \textit{C. C. Sims} [Proc. Lond. Math. Soc. (3) 15, 151-166 (1965; Zbl 0133.28401)] have given an asymptotic formula

Finite p′-nilpotent groups. II
In this paper we continue the study of finite p′-nilpotent groups that was started in the first part of this paper. Here we give a complete characterization of all finite groups that are not p′-nilpotent but all of whose proper subgroups are p′-nilpotent.

In this paper we consider finite p′-nilpotent groups which is a generalization of finite p-nilpotent groups. This generalization leads us to consider the various special subgroups such as the Frattini subgroup, Fitting subgroup, and the hypercenter in ...

Let \(D\) be a division ring, \(V\) a vector space over \(D\) of infinite dimension. Say that an element \(g \in \text{GL} (V)\) is cofinitary if \(\dim_D C_V (g)\) is finite. A subgroup \(G \leq \text{GL} (V)\) is called cofinitary if all its non-trivial elements are cofinitary.

Ricci-flat and Einstein pseudoriemannian nilmanifolds
This is partly an expository paper, where the authors’ work on pseudoriemannian Einstein metrics on nilpotent Lie groups is reviewed. A new criterion is given for the existence of a diagonal Einstein metric on a nice nilpotent Lie group.

Holographic duals of 6d RG flows
A notable class of superconformal theories (SCFTs) in six dimensions is parameterized by an integer N , an ADE group G, and two nilpotent elements μ L,R in G. Nilpotent elements have a natural partial ordering, which has been conjectured to coincide with

Nilpotent Groups Acting on Abelian Groups [PDF]
In this paper, we study certain properties of the group ring of a nilpotent group which are related to commutativity and conjugation. We establish some relations involving conjugates of the elements of the group ring; these relations are then used to get a better understanding of torsion in abelian-by-nilpotent groups; we shall see notably that given ...

Locally Nilpotent Linear Groups
We survey aspects of locally nilpotent linear groups. Then we obtain a new classification; namely, we classify the irreducible maximal locally nilpotent subgroups of $\mathrm{GL}(q, \mathbb F)$ for prime $q$ and any field $\mathbb F$.

Groups with conjugacy classes of coprime sizes
Abstract Suppose that x$x$, y$y$ are elements of a finite group G$G$ lying in conjugacy classes of coprime sizes. We prove that ⟨xG⟩∩⟨yG⟩$\langle x^G \rangle \cap \langle y^G \rangle$ is an abelian normal subgroup of G$G$ and, as a consequence, that if x$x$ and y$y$ are π$\pi$‐regular elements for some set of primes π$\pi$, then xGyG$x^G y^G$ is a π ...
