Abstract

Let G be a finite group. We show that the order of the subgroup generated by coprime γk-commutators (respectively δk-commutators) is bounded in terms of the size of the set of coprime γk-commutators (respectively δk-commutators). This is in parallel with the classical theorem due to Turner-Smith that the words γk and δk are concise. 10.1017/S0004972713000361
