Résumé

N.D. Gupta has proved that groups which satisfy the laws $[x, y] \equiv [x,_{n} y]$ for $n = 2, 3$ are abelian. Every law $[x, y] \equiv [x,_{n} y]$ can be written in the form $a b \equiv b a$ where $a, b$ belong to a free group $F_{2}$ of rank two, and the normal closure of $〈 a, b 〉$ coincides with $F_{2}$ . In this work we investigate laws of this form. In particular, we discuss certain classes of laws and show that the metabelian groups which satisfy them are abelian.
