Characterisations of finite groups by subsets of commutators

Abstract Given a finite group 𝐺 and an element 𝑥 of 𝐺, let K x ⁢ ( G ) K_{x}(G) denote the set of commutators [ x , g ] [x,g] as 𝑔 varies through 𝐺. We prove that various group theoretical properties of 𝐺, for instance, nilpotency of several subgroups of 𝐺 and the existence of a...
