Abstract
Generalizing results in [1], [3], [5], and [7] it is shown that the algebra generated by the quasi-regular representation λ of a discrete group G on l2 (G/H) satisfies a standard polynomial identity if and only if λ (G) contains an abelian normal subgroup of finite index. An analogon for topological groups is also proved.
