On a result of L.-C. Kappe and M. Newell
2009
There is a long line of research investigating upper central series of a group. The interest comes from the information which these series can give on the structure of a group. Baer (1952) extended the usual notion of center of a group, introducing that of p-centre, where p is a prime. Almost 40 years later, Kappe and Newell (1989) were able to embed the p-centre of a metabelian p-group in the p-th term of the upper central series. This was possible because of the growing knowledge on Engel groups of the 60s years. Here we extend the result of Kappe and Newell (1989) to wider classes of groups.
Group Identities on Units of Group Algebras
2000
Abstract Let U be the group of units of the group algebra FG of a group G over a field F . Suppose that either F is infinite or G has an element of infinite order. We characterize groups G so that U satisfies a group identity. Under the assumption that G modulo the torsion elements is nilpotent this gives a complete classification of such groups. For torsion groups this problem has already been settled in recent years.
Some new (s,k,?)-translation transversal designs with non-abelian translation group
1989
For λ >1 and many values of s andk, we give a construction of (s,k,λ)-partitions of finite non-abelian p-groups and of Frobenius groups with non-abelian kernel. These groups are associated with translation transversl designs of the same parameters.
Abelian Sylow subgroups in a finite group, II
2015
Abstract Let p ≠ 3 , 5 be a prime. We prove that Sylow p-subgroups of a finite group G are abelian if and only if the class sizes of the p-elements of G are all coprime to p. This gives a solution to a problem posed by R. Brauer in 1956 (for p ≠ 3 , 5 ).
ON SYLOW NORMALIZERS OF FINITE GROUPS
2013
[EN] The paper considers the influence of Sylow normalizers, i.e. normalizers of Sylow subgroups, on the structure of finite groups. In the universe of finite soluble groups it is known that classes of groups with nilpotent Hall subgroups for given sets of primes are exactly the subgroup- closed saturated formations satisfying the following property: a group belongs to the class if and only if its Sylow normalizers do so. The paper analyzes the extension of this research to the universe of all finite groups.
On second minimal subgroups of Sylow subgroups of finite groups
2011
A subgroup H of a finite group G is a partial CAP-subgroup of G if there is a chief series of G such that H either covers or avoids its chief factors. Partial cover and avoidance property has turned out to be very useful to clear up the group structure. In this paper, finite groups in which the second minimal subgroups of their Sylow p-subgroups, p a fixed prime, are partial CAP-subgroups are completely classified.
The average number of Sylow subgroups of a finite group
2013
We prove that if the average Sylow number (ignoring the Sylow numbers that are one) of a finite group G is ⩽7, then G is solvable.
Characterization of strong chain geometries by their automorphism group
1992
A wide class of chain geometries is characterized by their automorphism group using properties of a distinguished involution.
The Fitting Subgroup and Some Injectors of Radical Locally Finite Groups with min-pfor Allp
2003
Abstract This work was intended as an attempt to continue the study of the class ℬ of generalised nilpotent groups started in a previous paper. We present some results concerning the Fitting subgroup and the ℬ-injectors of a radical locally finite group satisfying min-p for all p.
A Gaschütz–Lubeseder Type Theorem in a Class of Locally Finite Groups
1999
The aim of this paper is to present a Gaschutz–Lubeseder type theorem in the class cL of all radical locally finite groups satisfying min−p for all primes p. Notice that these groups are countable and co-Hopfian by [1, (5.4.8)]. In retrospect, the theory of saturated formations of finite soluble groups began with the results of Gaschutz [3] in 1963. He introduced the concept of “covering subgroup” as a generalization of Sylow and Hall subgroups. These covering subgroups have many of the properties of Sylow and Hall subgroups other than the arithmetic ones. The main idea of Gaschutz’s work was concerned with group theoretical classes having the same properties. He defined a formation F to be…
