A criterion of solubility of G in terms of such commutators is obtained. We also conjecture that every element of a nonabelian simple group is a commutator of elements of coprime orders and we confirm this conjecture for the alternating groups.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2012-08-16T00:42:02.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "coprime orders", "finite group", "commutator", "nonabelian simple group", "conjecture" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2012arXiv1208.3177S" } } }
