Abstract

We prove that if G is a finite soluble group, V is a finite faithful completely reducible G-module, and H is a supersoluble subgroup of G, then H has at least one regular orbit on VV.

Abstract

The main aim of this survey paper is to present two orbit theorems and to show how to apply them to obtain a result that can be regarded as a significant step towards the solution of Gluck’s conjecture on large character degrees of finite soluble groups. We also show how to apply them to solve questions about intersections of some conjugacy families of subgroups of finite soluble groups.
