Let \(M\) be an arbitrary class of groups. Denote by \(L(M)\) the class of all groups \(G\) in which the normal closure \((x)^G\) of every element \(x\) of \(G\) belongs to \(M\). The class \(L(M)\) is called the Levi class generated by \(M\). It is known that if \(M\) is a variety of groups then so is \(L(M)\); if \(M\) is a quasivariety of groups then so is \(L(M)\). By \(qF_p\) the author denotes the quasivariety generated by the relatively free group in the class of nilpotent groups of length at most 2 with the commutant of exponent \(p\) (where \(p\) is an odd prime). The author describes the Levi class that is generated by \(qF_p\).
