ON GENERALISED PRONORMAL SUBGROUPS OF FINITE GROUPS

AbstractFor a formation $\mathfrak F$, a subgroup M of a finite group G is said to be $\mathfrak F$-pronormal in G if for each g ∈ G, there exists x ∈ 〈U,Ug〉$\mathfrak F$ such that Ux = Ug. Let f be a subgroup embedding functor such that f(G) contains the set of normal subgroups of G and is contained in the set of Sylow-permutable subgroups of G for every finite group G. Given such an f, let fT denote the class of finite groups in which f(G) is the set of subnormal subgroups of G; this is the class of all finite groups G in which to be in f(G) is a transitive relation in G. A subgroup M of a finite group G is said to be $\mathfrak F$-normal in G if G/CoreG(M) belongs to $\mathfrak F$. A sub…

Permutable subnormal subgroups of finite groups

The aim of this paper is to prove certain characterization theorems for groups in which permutability is a transitive relation, the so called PT -groups. In particular, it is shown that the finite solvable PT -groups, the finite solvable groups in which every subnormal subgroup of defect two is permutable, the finite solvable groups in which every normal subgroup is permutable sensitive, and the finite solvable groups in which conjugatepermutability and permutability coincide are all one and the same class. This follows from our main result which says that the finite modular p-groups, p a prime, are those p-groups in which every subnormal subgroup of defect two is permutable or, equivalentl…

On two classes of finite supersoluble groups

ABSTRACTLet ℨ 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 ℨ-S-semipermutable if H permutes with every Sylow p-subgroup of G in ℨ for all p∉π(H); H is said to be ℨ-S-seminormal if it is normalized by every Sylow p-subgroup of G in ℨ for all p∉π(H). The main aim of this paper is to characterize the ℨ-MS-groups, or groups G in which the maximal subgroups of every Sylow subgroup in ℨ are ℨ-S-semipermutable in G and the ℨ-MSN-groups, or groups in which the maximal subgroups of every Sylow subgroup in ℨ are ℨ-S-seminormal in G.

On a class of supersoluble groups

A subgroup H of a finite group G is said to be S-semipermutable in G if H permutes with every Sylow q-subgroup of G for all primes q not dividing |H|. A finite group G is an MS-group if the maximal subgroups of all the Sylow subgroups of G are S-semipermutable in G. The aim of the present paper is to characterise the finite MS-groups.

Some classes of finite groups and mutually permutable products

[EN] This paper is devoted to the study of mutually permutable products of finite groups. A factorised group G=AB is said to be a mutually permutable product of its factors A and B when each factor permutes with every subgroup of the other factor. We prove that mutually permutable products of Y-groups (groups satisfying a converse of Lagrange's theorem) and SC-groups (groups whose chief factors are simple) are SC-groups, by means of a local version. Next we show that the product of pairwise mutually permutable Y-groups is supersoluble. Finally, we give a local version of the result stating that when a mutually permutable product of two groups is a PST-group (that is, a group in which every …

On generalised subnormal subgroups of finite groups

Let be a formation of finite groups. A subgroup M of a finite group G is said to be -normal in G if belongs to . A subgroup U of a finite group G is called a K--subnormal subgroup of G if either U = G or there exist subgroups U = U0 ≤ U1 ≤ … ≤ Un = G such that Ui − 1 is either normal or -normal in Ui, for i = 1, 2, …, n. The K--subnormality could be regarded as the natural extension of the subnormality to formation theory and plays an important role in the structural study of finite groups. The main purpose of this paper is to analyse classes of finite groups whose K--subnormal subgroups are exactly the subnormal ones. Some interesting extensions of well-known classes of groups emerge.

Maximal subgroups and PST-groups

A subgroup H of a group G is said r to permute with a subgroup K of G if HK is a subgroup of G. H is said to be permutable (resp. S-permutable) if it permutes with all the subgroups (resp. Sylow subgroups) of G. Finite groups in which permutability (resp. S-permutability) is a transitive relation are called PT-groups (resp. PST-groups). PT-, PST- and T-groups, or groups in which normality is transitive, have been extensively studied and characterised. Kaplan [Kaplan G., On T-groups, supersolvable groups, and maxmial subgroups, Arch. Math. (Basel), 2011, 96(1), 19-25)] presented some new characterisations of soluble T-groups. The main goal of this paper is to establish PT- and PST-versions o…

Primitive subgroups and PST-groups

AbstractAll groups considered in this paper are finite. A subgroup $H$ of a group $G$ is called a primitive subgroup if it is a proper subgroup in the intersection of all subgroups of $G$ containing $H$ as a proper subgroup. He et al. [‘A note on primitive subgroups of finite groups’, Commun. Korean Math. Soc. 28(1) (2013), 55–62] proved that every primitive subgroup of $G$ has index a power of a prime if and only if $G/ \Phi (G)$ is a solvable PST-group. Let $\mathfrak{X}$ denote the class of groups $G$ all of whose primitive subgroups have prime power index. It is established here that a group $G$ is a solvable PST-group if and only if every subgroup of $G$ is an $\mathfrak{X}$-group.

Some local properties defining $\mathcal T_0$-groups and related classes of groups

We call $G$ a $\operatorname{Hall}_{\mathcal X}$-group if there exists a normal nilpotent subgroup $N$ of $G$ for which $G/N'$ is an ${\mathcal X}$-group. We call $G$ a ${\mathcal T}_0$-group provided $G/\Phi(G)$ is a ${\mathcal T}$-group, that is, one in which normality is a transitive relation. We present several new local classes of groups which locally define $\operatorname{Hall}_{\mathcal X}$-groups and ${\mathcal T}_0$-groups where ${\mathcal X}\in\{ {\mathcal T},\mathcal {PT},\mathcal {PST}\}$; the classes $\mathcal {PT}$ and $\mathcal {PST}$ denote, respectively, the classes of groups in which permutability and S-permutability are transitive relations.

A Local Approach to Certain Classes of Finite Groups

Abstract We develop several local approaches for the three classes of finite groups: T-groups (normality is a transitive relation) and PT-groups (permutability is a transitive relation) and PST-groups (S-permutability is a transitive relation). Here a subgroup of a finite group G is S-permutable if it permutes with all the Sylow subgroup of G.

THE STRUCTURE OF MUTUALLY PERMUTABLE PRODUCTS OF FINITE NILPOTENT GROUPS

On some classes of supersoluble groups

[EN] Finite groups G for which for every subgroup H and for all primes q dividing the index |G:H| there exists a subgroup K of G such that H is contained in K and |K:H|=q are called Y-groups. Groups in which subnormal subgroups permute with all Sylow subgroups are called PST-groups. In this paper a local version of the Y-property leading to a local characterisation of Y-groups, from which the classical characterisation emerges, is introduced. The relationship between PST-groups and Y-groups is also analysed.

Some Characterisations of Soluble SST-Groups

All groups considered in this paper are finite. A subgroup H of a group G is said to be SS-permutable or SS-quasinormal in G if H has a supplement K in G such that H permutes with every Sylow subgroup of K. Following [6], we call a group G an SST-group provided that SS-permutability is a transitive relation in G, that is, if A is an SS-permutable subgroup of B and B is an SS-permutable subgroup of G, then A is an SS-permutable subgroup of G. The main aim of this paper is to present several characterisations of soluble SST-groups.

GENERALIZED HYPERCENTERS IN INFINITE GROUPS

We consider the so-called generalized center, defined by Agrawal, in the slightly wider context of periodic groups and try to find out where additional conditions are needed for refinements. In particular we consider the final terms of the corresponding ascending sequences.
