One of the most widely used applications of block theory to the U w x structure theory of finite groups is Glauberman's Z -theorem 2 , which asserts that if t is an involution of a finite group G which is not conjugate in G to any other involution of a Sylow 2-subgroup containing t, then Ε½ . Ε½ .

It is shown that there is a close connection between the right 2-Engel elements of a group and the set of the so-called commuting automorphisms of the group. As a consequence, the following general theorem is proved: If G is a group and if Ε½ . R G denotes the subgroup of right 2-Engel elements, then
It has been shown that there is a Hamilton cycle in every connected Cayley graph on each group G whose commutator subgroup is cyclic of prime-power order. This paper considers connected, vertex-transitive graphs X of order at least 3 where the automorphism group of X contains a transitive subgroup G
