Abstract:

If C is a class of groups, a C-injector of a finite group G is a subgroup V of G with the property that VK is a C-maximal subgroup of K for all subnormal subgroups K of G. The classical result of B. Fischer, W. Gaschütz and B. Hartley states the existence and conjugacy of F-injectors in finite soluble groups for Fitting classes F. We shall show that for groups of nilpotent length at most 4, F-injectors permute with the members of a Sylow basis in the group. We shall exhibit the construction of a Fitting class and a group of nilpotent length 5, which fail to satisfy the result and show that the bound is the best possible.

TITLE: Carter and Gaschütz theories revisited

ABSTRACT: Classical results from the theory of finite soluble groups state that Carter subgroups, i.e. self-normalizing nilpotent subgroups, coincide with nilpotent projectors and with nilpotent covering subgroups, and they form a non-empty conjugacy class of subgroups, in soluble groups. We present an extension of these facts to π-separable groups, for sets of primes π, by proving the existence of a conjugacy class of subgroups in π-separable groups, which specialize to Carter subgroups within the universe of soluble groups.

The approach runs parallel to the extension of Hall theory from soluble to π-separable groups by Cunihin, regarding existence and properties of Hall subgroups. Our Carter-like subgroups enable an extension of the existence and conjugacy of injectors associated to Fitting classes to π-separable groups, in the spirit of the role of Carter subgroups in the theory of soluble groups. This is joint work with M. Arroyo-Jordá, P. Arroyo-Jordá, R. Dark and A.D. Feldman.

Abstract

A remarkable result of Thompson states that a finite group is soluble if and only if all its two-generated subgroups are soluble. This result has been generalized in numerous ways, and it is in the core of a wide area of research in the theory of groups, aiming for global properties of groups from local properties of two-generated (or more generally, n-generated) subgroups. We contribute an extension of Thompson’s theorem from the perspective of factorized groups. More precisely, we study finite groups G = AB with subgroups A, B such that ⟨a, b⟩ is soluble for all aA and bB. In this case, the group G is said to be an S-connected product of the subgroups A and B for the class S of all finite soluble groups. Our Main Theorem states that G = AB is S-connected if and only if [A, B] is soluble. In the course of the proof, we derive a result about independent primes regarding the soluble graph of almost simple groups that might be interesting in its own right.

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to prove the following result: Let π be a set of odd primes. If the group G = AB is the product of two π-decomposable subgroups A = Aπ × Aπ′ and B = Bπ × Bπ′, then G has a unique conjugacy class of Hall π-subgroups, and any π-subgroup is contained in a Hall π-subgroup (i.e. G satisfies property Dπ).

Abstract

For a non-empty class of groups L, a finite group G=AB is said to be an L-connected product of the subgroups A and B if ⟨a,b⟩∈L for all aA and bB. In a previous paper, we prove that, for such a product, when L=S is the class of finite soluble groups, then [A,B] is soluble. This generalizes the theorem of Thompson that states the solubility of finite groups whose two-generated subgroups are soluble. In the present paper, our result is applied to extend to finite groups previous research about finite groups in the soluble universe. In particular, we characterize connected products for relevant classes of groups, among others, the class of metanilpotent groups and the class of groups with nilpotent derived subgroup. Additionally, we give local descriptions of relevant subgroups of finite groups.

Abstract

A remarkable result of Thompson states that a finite group is soluble if
and only if its two-generated subgroups are soluble. This result has been
sharply generalized, and it is in the core of a wide area of study in the theory
of groups, aiming for global properties of groups from local properties of two-
generated (or more generally, n-generated) subgroups. We report about an
extension of Thompson’s theorem from the perspective of factorized groups.
We prove that for a finite group G = AB, with A, B subgroups of G, if ha, bi
is soluble for all a ∈ A and all b ∈ B, then [A, B] is soluble. In that case, the
group G is said to be an S-connected product of the subgroups A and B, for
the class S of all finite soluble groups. As an application, deep results about
connected products of finite soluble groups, for other relevant classes of
groups, are extended to the finite universe. Collaboration with M. P. Gállego (U.

Abstract

We derive some structural properties of a trifactorised finite group G = AB = AC = BC, where A, B, and C are subgroups of G, provided that A = Aπ × Aπ’ and B = Bπ × Bπ’ are π-decomposable groups, for a set of primes π.
