metabelian group


Definition

A metabelian groupMathworldPlanetmath is a group G that possesses a normal subgroupMathworldPlanetmath N such that N and G/N are both abelianMathworldPlanetmath.Equivalently, G is metabelian if and only if the commutator subgroupMathworldPlanetmath [G,G] is abelian.Equivalently again, G is metabelian if and only if it is solvable of length at most 2.

(Note that in older literature the term tends to be used in the stronger sense that the central quotient G/Z(G) is abelian. This is equivalentMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmath to being nilpotentPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmath of class at most 2. We shall not use this sense here.)

Examples

  • All abelian groups.

  • All generalized dihedral groups.

  • All groups of order less than 24.

  • All metacyclic groupsMathworldPlanetmath.

Properties

SubgroupsMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmath (http://planetmath.org/Subgroup), quotients (http://planetmath.org/QuotientGroup) and (unrestricted) direct productsMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmath of metabelian groups are also metabelian.In other words, metabelian groups form a varietyMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmath (http://planetmath.org/VarietyOfGroups);they are, in fact, the groups in which (w-1x-1wx)(y-1z-1yz)=(y-1z-1yz)(w-1x-1wx) for all elements w, x, y and z.
