Groups of type \([d\to 3(d-1)]\). (Q910497): Difference between revisions

Let \(d\) be a fixed integer and \(G\) a group whose \(d\)-generator subgroups are nilpotent of class at most \(3(d-1)\). Then, with a hypothesis on the order of the elements, we prove that \(G\) is nilpotent, of class bounded in terms of \(d\). Examples show that the hypothesis on the order of the elements is necessary.
