Definition

A LCS-Lazard Lie group is a group G satisfying both the following properties:

  1. It is a 3-locally nilpotent group, i.e., any three elements of the group generate a nilpotent subgroup.
  2. Its 3-local lower central series powering threshold is . Explicitly, for any nonnegative integer k, let γk3loc(G) denote the kth member of the 3-local lower central series of G. Then, γk3loc(G) is powered over all the primes pk.

The definition of LCS-Lazard Lie group is somewhat nicer than the definition of Lazard Lie group in that it does not involve a "nilpotency class-specific definition."

Metaproperties

Metaproperty name Satisfied? Proof Statement with symbols
subgroup-closed group property No LCS-Lazard Lie property is not subgroup-closed It is possible to have a LCS-Lazard Lie group G and a subgroup H of G such that H is not a Lazard Lie group.
quotient-closed group property No LCS-Lazard Lie property is not quotient-closed It is possible to have a LCS-Lazard Lie group G and a normal subgroup H of G such that the quotient group G/H is not a LCS-Lazard Lie group.
finite direct product-closed group property Yes LCS-Lazard Lie property is finite direct product-closed If G1 and G2 are LCS-Lazard Lie groups, then the external direct product G1×G2 is a LCS-Lazard Lie group.
