Abstract

In this note we further our investigation of Baer invariants of groups by obtaining, as consequences of an exact sequence of A. S.-T. Lue, some numerical inequalities for their orders, exponents, and generating sets. An interesting group theoretic corollary is an explicit bound for |γc+1(G)| given that G/Zc(G) is a finite p-group with prescribed order and number of generators.
