Levi Classes of Quasivarieties of Groups with Commutator Subgroup of Order p

  • Published:
Algebra and Logic Aims and scope

The Levi class generated by the class ℳ of groups is the class of all groups in which the normal closure of each element belongs to ℳ. We describe Levi classes generated by a quasivariety \( {\mathcal{K}}^{p^s} \) and some of its subquasivarieties, where \( {\mathcal{K}}^{p^s} \) is the quasivariety of groups with commutator subgroup of order p in which elements of the exponent of the degree of p less than ps are contained in the center of a group, p is a prime, p ≠ 2, s ≥ 2, and s > 2 for p = 3.
