Finite groups with <Emphasis Type="Italic">C</Emphasis>-quasinormal subgroups

Consider some finite group G and a finite subgroup H of G. Say that H is c-quasinormal in G if G has a quasinormal subgroup T such that HT = G and T ∩ H is quasinormal in G. Given a noncyclic Sylow subgroup P of G, we fix some subgroup D such that 1 < |D| < | P| and study the structure of G under the assumption that all subgroups H of P of the same order as D, having no supersolvable supplement in G, are c-quasinormal in G.     

On weakly <Emphasis Type="Italic">S</Emphasis>Φ-supplemented subgroups of finite groups

Let G be a finite group. We say that a subgroup H of G is weakly SΦ-supplemented in G if G has a subgroup T such that G = HT and H∩T ≤ Φ(H)H_sG, where H_sG is the subgroup of H generated by all those subgroups of H that are s-permutable in G. In this paper, we investigate the influence of weakly SΦ-supplemented subgroups on the structure of finite groups. Some new characterizations of p-nilpotency and supersolubility of finite groups are obtained.     

Classification of finite groups satisfying a minimal condition

If H is a subgroup of a finite group G then we denote the normal closure of H in G by H ^G . We call G a PE-group if every minimal subgroup X of G satisfies N ^G (X) ∩ X ^G = X. The authors classify the finite non-PE-groups whose maximal subgroups of even order are PE-groups.     

The structure of finite groups with weakly <Emphasis Type="Italic">c</Emphasis>-normal subgroups

For a subgroup of a finite group we introduce a new property called weakly c-normal. Suppose that G is a finite group and H is a subgroup of G. H is said to be weakly c-normal in G if there exists a subnormal subgroup K of G such that \(G=HK\) and \(H\cap K\) is s-quasinormally embedded in G. We fix in every non-cyclic Sylow subgroup P of G some subgroup D satisfying \(1<|D|<|P|\) and study the structure of G under the assumption that every subgroup H of P with \(|H|=|D|\) is weakly c-normal in G. Some recent results are generalized and unified.     

On $$\mathfrak {F}_{hq}$$-supplemented subgroups of a finite group

A subgroup H of a finite group G is quasinormal in G if it permutes with every subgroup of G. A subgroup H of a finite group G is \(\mathfrak {F}_{hq}\)-supplemented in G if G has a quasinormal subgroup N such that HN is a Hall subgroup of G and \((H\cap N)H_{G}/ H_{G} \le Z_{\mathfrak {F}}(G/H_{G})\), where \(H_{G}\) is the core of H in G and \({Z}_{\mathfrak {F}} (G/H_{G})\) is the \(\mathfrak {F}\)-hypercenter of \({G/H}_{G}\). This paper concerns the structure of a finite group G under the assumption that some subgroups of G are \(\mathfrak {F}_{hq}\)-supplemented in G.     

On <Emphasis Type="Italic">ss</Emphasis>-quasinormal or weakly <Emphasis Type="Italic">s</Emphasis>-permutably embedded subgroups of finite groups

Suppose that G is a finite group and H is a subgroup of G. H is said to be an ss-quasinormal subgroup of G if there is a subgroup B of G such that \(G=HB\) and H permutes with every Sylow subgroup of B; H is said to be weakly s-permutably embedded in G if there are a subnormal subgroup T of G and an s-permutably embedded subgroup \(H_{se}\) of G contained in H such that \(G=HT\) and \(H\cap T\le H_{se}\). We fix in every non-cyclic Sylow subgroup P of G some subgroup D satisfying \(1<|D|<|P|\) and study the structure of G under the assumption that every subgroup H of P with \(|H|=|D|\) is either ss-quasinormal or weakly s-permutably embedded in G. Some recent results are generalized and unified.     

On an open problem of Guo-Skiba

Let G be a finite group, and let A be a proper subgroup of G. Then any chief factor H/A _G of G is called a G-boundary factor of A. For any Gboundary factor H/A _G of A, the subgroup (A ∩ H)/A _G of G/ A _G is called a G-trace of A. In this paper, we prove that G is p-soluble if and only if every maximal chain of G of length 2 contains a proper subgroup M of G such that either some G-trace of M is subnormal or every G-boundary factor of M is a p′-group. This result give a positive answer to a recent open problem of Guo and Skiba. We also give some new characterizations of p-hypercyclically embedded subgroups.

Finite Groups with Given Weakly <Emphasis Type="Italic">σ</Emphasis>-Permutable Subgroups

Let G be a finite group and let σ = {σ _i | i ∈ I} be a partition of the set of all primes P. A set ? of subgroups of G is said to be a complete Hall σ-set of G if each nonidentity member of ? is a Hall σ _i -subgroup of G and ? has exactly one Hall σ _i -subgroup of G for every σ _i ∈ σ(G). A subgroup H of G is said to be σ-permutable in G if G possesses a complete Hall σ-set ? such that HA ^x = A ^x H for all A ∈ ? and all x ∈ G. A subgroup H of G is said to be weakly σ-permutable in G if there exists a σ-subnormal subgroup T of G such that G = HT and H ∩ T ≤ H _σG , where H _σG is the subgroup of H generated by all those subgroups of H which are σ-permutable in G. We study the structure of G under the condition that some given subgroups of G are weakly σ-permutable in G. In particular, we give the conditions under which a normal subgroup of G is hypercyclically embedded. Some available results are generalized.     

Boundedness and compactness of an integral operator between <Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis><Superscript>∞</Superscript> and a mixed norm space on the polydisk

This addendum to [1] completely characterizes the boundedness and compactness of a recently introduced integral type operator from the space of bounded holomorphic functions H ^∞(\(\mathbb{D}^n \)) on the unit polydisk \(\mathbb{D}^n \) to the mixed norm space

with p, q ∈ [1,∞) and α = (α₁, ..., α _n ) such that α _j > ?1 for every j = 1, ..., n. We show that the operator is bounded if and only if it is compact and if and only if g ∈

, where \(\vec q\) = (q, ..., q).

     

<Emphasis Type="Italic">c</Emphasis>-Semipermutable subgroups of finite groups

A subgroup is called c-semipermutable in G if A has a minimal supplement T in G such that for every subgroup T ₁ of T there is an element x ∈ T satisfying AT ₁ ^x = T ₁ ^x A. We obtain a few results about the c-semipermutable subgroups and use them to determine the structures of some finite groups.     

On the <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-supersolubility of a finite group with a µ-supplemented sylow <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-subgroup

A subgroup H of a group G is called µ-supplemented in G if there exists a subgroup K such that G = HK and H ₁ K is a proper subgroup in G for every maximal subgroup H ₁ in H. For the initial values of p, we establish the p-supersolubility of a finite group with a μ-supplemented Sylow p-subgroup.     

Economical separability in free groups

Consider the rank n free group F _n with basis X. Bogopol’ski? conjectured in [1, Problem 15.35] that each element w ∈ F _n of length |w| ≥ 2 with respect to X can be separated by a subgroup H ≤ F _n of index at most C log |w| with some constant C. We prove this conjecture for all w outside the commutant of F _n , as well as the separability by a subgroup of index at most |w|/2 + 2 in general.     

On recognizability of some finite simple orthogonal groups by spectrum

It is proved that, if G is a finite group that has the same set of element orders as the simple group D _p (q), where p is prime, p ≥ 5 and q ∈ {2, 3, 5}, then the commutator group of G/F(G) is isomorphic to D _p (q), the subgroup F(G) is equal to 1 for q = 5 and to O _q (G) for q ∈ {2, 3}, F(G) ≤ G′, and |G/G′| ≤ 2.     

A condition for the solvability of finite groups

A subgroup H is called ?-supplemented in a finite group G, if there exists a subgroup B of G such that G = HB and H ₁ B is a proper subgroup of G for every maximal subgroup H ₁ of H. We investigate the influence of ?-supplementation of Sylow subgroups and obtain a condition for solvability and p-supersolvability of finite groups.     

X-quasinormal subgroups

Considering two subgroups A and B of a group G and ? ≠ X ? G, we say that A is X-permutable with B if AB ^x = B ^x A for some element x ∈ X. We use this concept to give new characterizations of the classes of solvable, supersolvable, and nilpotent finite groups.     

Minimal non-group-like twisted subsets with involutions

A subset K of some group G is called twisted if 1 ∈ K and xy ^?1 x ∈ K for all x, y ∈ K. We study the finite twisted subsets with an involution which are not subgroups but whose every proper twisted subset is a subgroup. We also consider the groups generated by twisted subsets.     

The Rao–Reiter Criterion for the Amenability of Homogeneous Spaces

We prove that a homogeneous space G/H, with G a locally compact group and H a closed subgroup of G, is amenable in the sense of Eymard–Greenleaf if and only if the quasiregular action π_Φ of G on the unit sphere of the Orlicz space L^Φ(G/H) for some N-function Φ ∈ Δ₂ satisfies the Rao–Reiter condition (P_Φ).     

Finite <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-groups with a class of complemented normal subgroups

Assume G is a finite group and H a subgroup of G. If there exists a subgroup K of G such that G = HK and H ∩ K = 1, then K is said to be a complement to H in G. A finite p-group G is called an NC-group if all its proper normal subgroups not contained in Φ(G) have complements. In this paper, some properties of NC-groups are investigated and some classes of NC-groups are classified.     

Solvability of finite groups

H is called an ? _p -embedded subgroup of G, if there exists a p-nilpotent subgroup B of G such that H _p ∈ Syl _p (B) and B is ? _p -supplemented in G. In this paper, by considering prime divisor 3, 5, or 7, we use ? _p -embedded property of primary subgroups to investigate the solvability of finite groups. The main result is follows. Let E be a normal subgroup of G, and let P be a Sylow 5-subgroup of E. Suppose that 1 < d ? |P| and d divides |P|. If every subgroup H of P with |H| = d is ?₅-embedded in G, then every composition factor of E satisfies one of the following conditions: (1) I/C is cyclic of order 5, (2) I/C is 5′-group, (3) I/C ?
