Definition

A p-group is termed a Lazard Lie group if every subgroup of it generated by three elements, has nilpotence class at most where is the prime associated with the group.

Facts

Lazard's theorem gives a method to construct a Lazard Lie ring for any Lazard Lie group. This construction and its paraphernalia go under the name of the Lazard correspondence.

3-local

A group occurs as a Lazard Lie group if and only if, for any three elements of the group, the subgroup they generate occurs as a Lazard Lie group. For full proof, refer: Lazard Lie property is 3-local
