The power mapping as endomorphism of a group. (Q2869428)

Let \(n\) be any integer such that \(n\not\in\{0,1\}\). A group is called \(n\)-Abelian if the map \(f_n\colon G\to G\) defined by \(x\mapsto x^n\) for all \(x\in G\) is an endomorphism of \(G\). The class of \(n\)-Abelian groups for which the endomorphism \(f_n\) is monomorphism (epimorphism, respectively) is denoted by \(\mathfrak B_n\) (\(\mathfrak E_n\), respectively). A group is called \(n\)-Levi if \([x^n,y]=[x,y]^n\) for all \(x,y\in G\) and it is called \(n\)-Bell if \([x^n,y]=[x,y^n]\).NEWLINENEWLINE The paper under review gives a survey of known results on the above mentioned classes of groups.NEWLINENEWLINE In the last section of the paper under review, results on the following sets of integers are also surveyed: NEWLINE\[NEWLINE\begin{aligned}\mathbb E(G)&=\{n\in\mathbb Z\mid (xy)^n=x^ny^n\text{ for all }x,y\in G\},\\ \mathbb L(G)&=\{n\in\mathbb Z\mid [x^n,y]=[x,y]^n\text{ for all }x,y\in G\},\\ \mathbb B(G)&=\{n\in\mathbb Z\mid [x^n,y]=[x,y^n]\text{ for all }x,y\in G\},\\ \mathbb A(G)&=\{n\in\mathbb Z\mid f_n\in\Aut(G)\}.\end{aligned}NEWLINE\]NEWLINE The paper is a good reference for those who would like to start a study on the above classes of groups or sets of integers.
