The tensor center of a group $G$ is the set of elements $a$ in $G$ such that $a\otimes g = 1_\otimes$ for all $g$ in $G$. It is a characteristic subgroup of $G$ contained in its center. We introduce tensor analogues of various other subgroups of a group such as centralizers and 2-Engel elements and investigate their embedding in the group as well as interrelationships between those subgroups.
