It is natural to assume that if the set of all commutators of a group \(G\) is covered by finitely many subgroups, then the structure of the derived subgroup \([G,G]\) is determined in some way. The authors consider coverings of the set of commutators by finitely many cyclic subgroups. They obtain the following interesting result. Main Theorem. Let \(G\) be a group in which the set of all commutators can be covered by finitely many cyclic subgroups. Then \([G,G]\) is either finite or cyclic.
