Claudius sends Hamlet to England after Hamlet kills Polonius. However, Hamlet's ship is intercepted by pirates and Hamlet is able to talk his way on to their boat and back to Denmark. Rosencrantz and Guildenstern remain on Hamlet's boat and land in England, where they are executed.
They are Rosencrantz and Guildenstern.
Claudius has sent written instructions to the English to put Hamlet to death when he arrives there.
Certainly not. They were not even in Elsinore until well after Hamlet was visited by the Ghost. Then they were "sent for" by Claudius to find out what was up with Hamlet.
Claudius sent with Rosencrantz and Guildenstern an order to the king of England to have Hamlet put to death. I assume this is the "murderous commission" you are talking about. Hamlet finds it and substitutes another which is worded just the same, except it is Rosencrantz and Guildenstern who are to be killed, not Hamlet.
Claudius was suspicious that Hamlet knew of his crime after the players had put on their show. After Claudius hears that Hamlet had stabbed Polonius, Claudius was certain that Hamlet was trying to kill him. To protect himself, he sends Hamlet to England with a letter and Rosencrantz and Guildenstern to deliver him. The letter contains instructions for the king of England to have Hamlet executed.
Claudius says he must hide the haste with which Hamlet is being sent away because Hamlet is very popular with the people. He doesn't want the people of Denmark to suspect anything about Hamlet being sent away so quickly.
They are Rosencrantz and Guildenstern.
Plotwise, he's sent to get Hamlet to fence with Laertes. Hamlet teases him somewhat cruelly. There's no particular thematic link.
