Nilpotent groups in lattice framework

From MaRDI portal





The paper under review belongs to the investigations of groups through properties of certain lattices associated to them, such as the lattice of all subgroups. A weak congruence \(\theta\) on a group \(G\) is a non-empty relation on the underlying set which is symmetric, transitive and compatible with the group operations. When restricted to the subgroup \(\{ g \in G : g\theta g \}\), then this is a congruence. In the main results of the paper (Theorems~3.12~and 3.13), the nilpotence of a group \(G\) is characterized in terms of the lattice \(\mathsf{Wcon}(G)\) of weak congruences on \(G\). These results are based on a characterization (Corollary~3.8) of the centre of \(G\) in terms of \(\mathsf{Wcon}(G)\).
