Review text

A subset of a group is defined to be `large' if any finite intersection of translates is non-empty. The author continues work done in [\textit{K. Jaber, F. Wagner}, Commun. Algebra 28, No. 6, 2869-2885 (2000; Zbl 0952.20025)] and shows that a group whose set of elements of order 3 is large must have exponent 3. On the other hand, he uses small cancellation theory to embed any group into a group where the set of elements of order \(n\) is large for all \(n\geq 7\). The author also gives partial answers to the question whether a disjunction of equations satisfied largely in a nilpotent-by-finite group must be satisfied on the whole group.
