In any group G, some of the elements of G commute with all of the other elements in G. The set of all such elements in G is called the centre of G, and is denoted by Z(G). Hence Z(G) = {g|xg = gx x is a subset of G}. For instance in any group the identity commutes with every element - so Z(G) is never empty. It should
