Quick definition

A group is termed a global Lazard Lie group if its nilpotency class is finite and less than or equal to the group's powering threshold.

Explicit definition

A group is termed a global class Lazard Lie group for some natural number if both the following hold:

No. Shorthand for property Explanation
1 The powering threshold for is at least , i.e., is powered for the set of all primes less than or equal to . is uniquely -divisible for all primes . In other words, if is a prime and , there is a unique value satisfying .
2 The nilpotency class of is at most . is a nilpotent group of nilpotency class at most .

Condition (1) gets more demanding (i.e., stronger, so satisfied by fewer groups) as increases, while condition (2) gets less demanding (i.e., weaker, so satisfied by fewer groups) as we increase . Thus, a particular value of may work for a group but larger and smaller values may not.

A group is termed a global Lazard Lie group if it is a global class Lazard Lie group for some natural number .

A global Lazard Lie group is a group that can participate on the group side of the global Lazard correspondence. The Lie ring on the other side is its global Lazard Lie ring.

Set of possible values for which a group is a global class Lazard Lie group

A group is a global Lazard Lie group if and only if its nilpotency class is less than or equal to its powering threshold. The set of permissible values for which the group is a global class Lazard Lie group is the set of satisfying:

nilpotency class powering threshold

p-group version

A p-group is termed a global Lazard Lie group if its nilpotency class is at most .
