Abstract
Let G be a finite nilpotent group of class at most 2, and let w=w(x1,...,xn) be a group word in n variables. Then we prove that the number of n-tuples satisfying w, N(w,G), is at least |G|^{n-1}. This result, also independently obtained by Matthew Levy, solves a special case of a conjecture of Alon Amit.
