AbstractIf ω ≡ 1 is a group law implying virtual nilpotence in every finitely generated metabelian group satisfying it, then it implies virtual nilpotence for the finitely generated groups of a large class of groups including all residually or locally soluble-or-finite groups. In fact the groups of satisfying such a law are all nilpotent-by-finite exponent where the nilpotency class and exponent in question are both bounded above in terms of the length of ω alone. This yields a dichotomy for words. Finally, if the law ω ≡ 1 satisfies a certain additional condition—obtaining in particular for any monoidal or Engel law—then the conclusion extends to the much larger class consisting of all ‘locally graded’ groups.

AbstractA classical result of M. Zorn states that a finite group is nilpotent if and only if it satisfies an Engel condition. If this is the case, it satisfies almost all Engel conditions. We shall give a similar description of the class of p-soluble groups of p-length one by a sequence of commutator identities.

Let R be a prime ring and L a nonzero left ideal of R. For x, y ∈ R, we denote [x, y] = xy-yx the commutator of x and y. In this paper, we prove that if R admits a non-identity automorphism σ such that [[…[[σ(xn0), xn1], xn2], …], xnk] = 0 for all x ∈ L, where n0, n1, n2, …, nk are fixed positive integers, then R is commutative. The analogous results for semiprime rings and von Neumann algebras are also obtained.

Let [Formula: see text] be a noncommutative division ring with center [Formula: see text], which is algebraic, that is, [Formula: see text] is an algebraic algebra over the field [Formula: see text]. Let [Formula: see text] be an antiautomorphism of [Formula: see text] such that (i) [Formula: see text], all [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are positive integers depending on [Formula: see text]. If, further, [Formula: see text] has finite order, it was shown in [M. Chacron, Antiautomorphisms with quasi-generalised Engel condition, J. Algebra Appl. 17(8) (2018) 1850145 (19 pages)] that [Formula: see text] is commuting, that is, [Formula: see text], all [Formula: see text]. Posed in [M. Chacron, Antiautomorphisms with quasi-generalised Engel condition, J. Algebra Appl. 17(8) (2018) 1850145 (19 pages)] is the question which asks as to whether the finite order requirement on [Formula: see text] can be dropped. We provide here an affirmative answer to the question. The second major result of this paper is concerned with a nonnecessarily algebraic division ring [Formula: see text] with an antiautomorphism [Formula: see text] satisfying the stronger condition (ii) [Formula: see text], all [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are fixed positive integers. It was shown in [T.-K. Lee, Anti-automorphisms satisfying an Engel condition, Comm. Algebra 45(9) (2017) 4030–4036] that if, further, [Formula: see text] has finite order then [Formula: see text] is commuting. We show here, that again the finite order assumption on [Formula: see text] can be lifted answering thus in the affirmative the open question (see Question 2.11 in [T.-K. Lee, Anti-automorphisms satisfying an Engel condition, Comm. Algebra 45(9) (2017) 4030–4036]).
