Definition

A group $G$ is termed a UCS-Baer Lie group if $G$ is a group of nilpotency class two and the center $Z(G)$ is a 2-powered group.

UCS-Baer Lie groups can participate on the group side of the UCS-Baer correspondence; the objects on the Lie ring side are UCS-Baer Lie rings.

Finite UCS-Baer Lie groups coincide with finite Baer Lie groups, and therefore with odd-order class two groups.

Examples

Finite examples

In the finite case, UCS-Baer Lie groups coincide with finite Baer Lie groups, and therefore with odd-order class two groups.

Infinite examples

An example is central product of UT(3,Z) and Q.

More generally, for a finitely generated torsion-free nilpotent group of class two, we can construct an example by taking the central product of that group with the vector space over the rationals obtained by taking $\mathbb {Q} \otimes$ the center. To be more precise, we do not need to use the whole field of rationals: taking the tensor product with $\mathbb {Z} [1/2]$ should suffice.
