We call $\\mathcal{E}_G$, the Engel graph of $G$. In this paper we study the graph theoretical properties of $\\mathcal{E}_G$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2007-08-16T20:12:51.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "20F45", "20D60", "05C25" ], "keywords": [ "engel graph", "left engel elements", "non-engel group", "distinct vertices", "graph theoretical properties" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
