Abstract

Let F be a free group and let wF. For a group G, let Gw denote the set of all w-values in G and w(G) the verbal subgroup of G corresponding to w. A word w is called boundedly concise if, for each group G such that |Gw| ≤ m, we have |w(G)| ≤ c for some integer c = c(m) depending only on m. The main theorem of the paper says that if w is a boundedly concise word and G is a group such that |xGw| ≤ m for all xG then |xw(G)| ≤ d for all xG and some integer d = d(m,w) depending only on m and w.
