Re: Nilpotent groups
I have the strange feeling that people are not paying attention to what I am saying.

In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
90% of mathematicians do not understand 90% of currently published mathematics.
I am willing to wager that over 75% of the new words that appeared were nothing more than spelling errors that caught on.

Re: Nilpotent groups
I've been reading it all, in anticipation of learning group theory before I start university (I plan to start learning as soon as my A levels are over).

Re: Nilpotent groups
At the moment, I am reading about semidirect products and wreath products in my group-theory book – and trying to get my head round the definitions. This is definitely not a topic for the faint-hearted.
