Definition
Symbol-free definition
A finitely generated nilpotent group is a group satisfying the following equivalent conditions:
- It is finitely generated and nilpotent.
- It is slender (i.e., every subgroup is finitely generated) and nilpotent.
- It is nilpotent and its abelianization is finitely generated.
