Coprime commutators in finite groups

Abstract: Let

G

be a finite group and let

k g e q 2

. We prove that the coprime subgroup

g a m m a_{k}^{*} (G)

is nilpotent if and only if

| x y | = | x | | y |

for any

g a m m a_{k}^{*}

-commutators

x, y i n G

of coprime orders (Theorem A). Moreover, we show that the coprime subgroup

d e l t a_{k}^{*} (G)

is nilpotent if and only if

| a b | = | a | | b |

for any powers of

d e l t a_{k}^{*}

-commutators

a, b i n G

of coprime orders (Theorem B).
