| Jul 18, 2011 at 17:33 | comment | added | Geoff Robinson | It CAN be true when H is not inside Z(G) that G is nilpotent if G/H is nilpotent but it is not GUARANTEED to be true. If H is contained in Z(G), it is guaranteed to be true that G is nilpotent if G/H is nilpotent. How to prove this may depend on the definition(s) you have used for nilpotent groups. | |
