Abstract

We say that a subgroup H of a finite group G is solitary (respectively, normal solitary) when it is a subgroup (respectively, normal subgroup) of G such that no other subgroup (respectively, normal subgroup) of G is isomorphic to H. A normal subgroup N of a group G is said to be quotient solitary when no other normal subgroup K of G gives a quotient isomorphic to G/N. We show some new results about lattice properties of these subgroups and their relation with classes of groups and present examples showing a negative answer to some questions about these subgroups.

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

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:

Our first main result proves that every element of order 4 of a Sylow 2-subgroup S of a minimal non-2-nilpotent group G, is a real element of S. This allows to give a character-free proof of a theorem due to Isaacs and Navarro. As an application, the authors show a common extension of the p-nilpotence criteria proved by Berkovich and Isaacs and Navarro.

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.

We extend to soluble FC-groups, the class of generalised FC-groups introduced in de Giovanni et al. [‘Groups with restricted conjugacy classes’, Serdica Math. J. 28(3) (2002), 241–254], the characterisation of finite soluble T-groups obtained recently in Kaplan [‘On T-groups, supersolvable groups, and maximal subgroups’, Arch. Math.

Abstract

In this note, global information about a finite group is obtained by assuming that certain subgroups of some given order are S-semipermutable. Recall that a subgroup H of a finite group G is said to be S-semipermutable if H permutes with all Sylow subgroups of G of order coprime to |H|. We prove that for a fixed prime p, a given Sylow p-subgroup P of a finite group G, and a power d of p dividing |G| such that 1d<|P|, if HO^p(G) is S-semipermutable in O^p(G) for all normal subgroups H of P with |H|=d, then either G is p-supersoluble or else |PO^p(G)|>d. This extends the main result of Guo and Isaacs in (Arch. Math. 105:215–222 2015). We derive some theorems that extend some known results concerning S-semipermutable subgroups.

Abstract

Let be a complete set of Sylow subgroups of a finite group G, that is, a set composed of a Sylow p-subgroup of G for each p dividing the order of G. A subgroup H of G is called -permutable if H permutes with all members of . The main goal of this paper is to study the embedding of the -permutable subgroups and the influence of -permutability on the group structure.

Abstract

In this paper families of non-nilpotent subgroups covering the non-nilpotent part of a finite group are considered. An A_5-free group possessing one of these families is soluble, and soluble groups with this property have Fitting length at most three. A bound on the number of primes dividing the order of the group is also obtained.
