Nilpotent residual of fixed points
Let $q$ be a prime and $A$ a finite $q$-group of exponent $q$ acting by automorphisms on a finite $q'$-group $G$. Assume that $A$ has order at least $q^3$. We show that if $γ_{\infty} (C_{G}(a))$ has order at most $m$ for any $a \in A^{\#}$, then the order of $γ_{\infty} (G)$ is bounded solely in terms of $m$ and $q$. If $γ_{\infty} (C_{G}(a))$ has rank at most $r$ for any $a \in A^{\#}$, then the rank of $γ_{\infty} (G)$ is bounded solely in terms of $r$ and $q$.
