Abstract

The solubility of a finite group with less than 6 non-supersoluble subgroups is confirmed in the paper. Moreover we prove that a finite insoluble group has exactly 6 non-supersoluble subgroups if and only if it is isomorphic to A_5 or SL_2 (5). Furthermore, it is shown that a finite insoluble group has exactly 22 non-nilpotent subgroups if and only if it is isomorphic to A_5 or SL_2(5). This confirms a conjecture of Zarrin (Arch Math (Basel) 99:201–206, 2012).

Abstract

The principal aim of this paper is to study the regular and transitive subgroup functors in the universe of all finite soluble groups. We prove that they form a complemented and non-modular lattice containing two relevant sublattices. This is the answer to a question (Question 1.2.12) proposed by Skiba (1997) in the finite soluble universe.

Abstract

A subgroup H of a group G is called Sylow permutable, or S-permutable, in G if H permutes with all Sylow p-subgroups of G for all primes p. A group G is said to be a PST-group if Sylow permutability is a transitive relation in G. We show that a group G which is factorised by a normal subgroup and a subnormal PST-subgroup of odd order is supersoluble. As a consequence, the normal closure S^G of a subnormal PST-subgroup S of odd order of a group G is supersoluble, and the subgroup generated by subnormal PST-subgroups of G of odd order is supersoluble as well.

Abstract

The influence of the cyclic subgroups of order p or 4 of the focal subgroup of a saturated fusion system F over a p-group S is investigated in this paper. Some criteria for normality of S in F as well as necessary and sufficient conditions for nilpotency of F are given. The resistance of a p-group in which every cyclic subgroup of order p or 4 is normal, and earlier results about p-nilpotence of finite groups and nilpotency of saturated fusion systems are consequences of our study.

Abstract

A subgroup H of a finite group G is said to be Hall subnormally (respectively normally) embedded in G if there is a subnormal (respectively normal) subgroup N of G such that H is a Hall subgroup of N. The aim of this paper is to characterise the groups G having a Hall subnormally embedded subgroup of order |B| for each subgroup B of G. Some earlier results are consequences of our main theorem.

Abstract

In this paper we obtain some bounds for the exponent of a finite group, and its derived subgroup, which is a mutually permutable product of two abelian subgroups. They improve the ones known for products of finite abelian groups, and they are used to derive some interesting structural properties of such products.

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to obtain a bound for the p-length of a p-soluble group G whose elements of order p or order 4 (if p=2) of a Sylow p-subgroup of a residual subgroup of G are contained in the k-th term of the upper central series of a Sylow p-subgroup of G.

Abstract

A classical result of Gaschütz affirms that given a finite A-generated group G and a prime p , there exists a group G^# and an epimorphism φ:G→G^# whose kernel is an elementary abelian p-group which is universal among all groups satisfying this property. This Gaschütz universal extension has also been described in the mathematical literature with the help of the Cayley graph. We give an elementary and self-contained proof of the fact that this description corresponds to the Gaschütz universal extension. Our proof depends on another elementary proof of the Nielsen–Schreier theorem, which states that a subgroup of a free group is free.
