Groups Whose Finite Homomorphic Images are Metahamiltonian

A group G is metahamiltonian if all its non-abelian subgroups are normal. It is proved here that a finitely generated soluble group is metahamiltonian if and only if all its finite homomorphic images are metahamiltonian; the behaviour of soluble minimax groups with metahamiltonian finite homomorphic images is also investigated. Moreover, groups satisfying the minimal condition on non-metahamiltonian subgroups are described.     

Pairwise -connected Products of Certain Classes of Finite Groups

Abstract

Subgroups A and B of a finite group are said to be 𝒩-connected if the subgroup generated by elements x and y is a nilpotent group, for every pair of elements x in A and y in B. The behaviour of finite pairwise permutable and 𝒩-connected products are studied with respect to certain classes of groups including those groups where all the subnormal subgroups permute with all the maximal subgroups, the so-called SM-groups, and also the class of soluble groups where all the subnormal subgroups permute with all the Carter subgroups, the so-called C-groups.     

Groups satisfying weak chain conditions on non-modular subgroups

In this paper (generalized) soluble groups for which the set of all non-modular subgroups satisfies some weak chain condition are described. Groups satisfying weak chain conditions on non-permutable subgroups are also considered.     

Relative minimality and co-minimality of subgroups in topological groups

We study two properties of subgroups of a topological group (relative minimality and co-minimality), that generalize minimality. Many applications, mostly related to semidirect products and generalized Heisenberg groups are given.     

On the prefrattini subgroups of finite soluble groups

We study the partially prefrattini groups of a finite soluble group. We prove that the set of all partially prefrattini subgroups associated with the Gaschütz system of complements to crowns is a Boolean lattice.     

Groups with few conjugacy classes of non-normal subgroups

The structure of groups with finitely many non-normal subgroups is well known. In this paper, groups are investigated with finitely many conjugacy classes of non-normal subgroups with a given property. In particular, it is proved that a locally soluble group with finitely many non-trivial conjugacy classes of non-abelian subgroups has finite commutator subgroup. This result generalizes a theorem by Romalis and Sesekin on groups in which every non-abelian subgroup is normal.

Locally minimal topological groups 2

We continue in this paper the study of locally minimal groups started in Außenhofer et al. (2010) [4]. The minimality criterion for dense subgroups of compact groups is extended to local minimality. Using this criterion we characterize the compact abelian groups containing dense countable locally minimal subgroups, as well as those containing dense locally minimal subgroups of countable free-rank. We also characterize the compact abelian groups whose torsion part is dense and locally minimal. We call a topological group G almost minimal if it has a closed, minimal normal subgroup N such that the quotient group G/N is uniformly free from small subgroups. The class of almost minimal groups includes all locally compact groups, and is contained in the class of locally minimal groups. On the other hand, we provide examples of countable precompact metrizable locally minimal groups which are not almost minimal. Some other significant properties of this new class are obtained.     

Groups whose proper subgroups are Baer groups

In this paper we classify infinite soluble minimal non-nilpotent-groups, detemine the basic structure of infinite soluble minimal non-Baer-groups, and using famed Heineken-Mohamed-groups we construct an example of minimal non-Baer-group which is not minimal non-nilpotent-group.The author would like to thank Chen Zhangmu and Shi Wuje for narm help and useful advice.     

A Generalized Hughes Property of Finite Groups

Abstract

A Hughes cover for exponent p(pa prime number) of a finite group is a union of subgroups whose (non-empty) complement consists of elements of order p. A proper Hughes subgroup is an instance of a Hughes cover; and its parent group is soluble by a well-known result of Hughes and Thompson. More generally an earlier result of the authors shows that a group with a Hughes cover of fewer than psubgroups is soluble. This article treats the insoluble groups having a Hughes cover for exponent pwith exactly psubgroups: the almost simple groups with this property form a restricted class of projective special linear groups.     

Free Subgroups in the Units of ℤ[K 8 × C p ]

Abstract

Marciniak and Sehgal (Marciniak, Z., Sehgal, S. K. (1997). Constructing free subgroups of integral group rings units. Proc. Amer. Math. Soc.125(4):1005–1009) constructed free subgroups in U(?[G]) whenever Ghas a non normal finite subgroup. In this paper we construct free subgroups in U(?[G]), where Gis a group whose subgroups are all normal.

Measurable groups of low dimension

We consider low‐dimensional groups and group‐actions that are definable in a supersimple theory of finite rank. We show that any rank 1 unimodular group is (finite‐by‐Abelian)‐by‐finite, and that any 2‐dimensional asymptotic group is soluble‐by‐finite. We obtain a field‐interpretation theorem for certain measurable groups, and give an analysis of minimal normal subgroups and socles in groups definable in a supersimple theory of finite rank where infinity is definable. We prove a primitivity theorem for measurable group actions. (© 2008 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)     

A Note on Brauer's Induction Theorem in a Soluble Group

By Brauer's induction theorem, for any finite group G, each irreducible complex character of G is a sum of characters induced from linear characters of elementary subgroups of G. The purpose of this note is to show that for soluble G, such a sum always exists in which the subgroups have their indices in G divisible by the degree of the character.     

On the number of cyclic subgroups of a group

Abstract

There has been some interest in understanding the relationship between the number of cyclic subgroups of a group and its order. This relationship is controlled in many cases by the size of the set of non-squares of the group. We improve upon previously established bounds and classify groups that obtain our new bound.     

Groups with finitely many normalizers of non-abelian subgroups

Abstract A group is called metahamiltonian if all its non-abelian subgroups are normal; it is known that locally soluble metahamiltonian groups have finite commutator subgroup. Here the structure of locally graded groups with finitely many normalizers of (infinite) non-abelian subgroups is investigated, and the above result is extended to this more general situation.

A Galois correspondence for compact group actions on C-algebras

In this paper, we prove a Galois correspondence for compact group actions on C^?-algebras in the presence of a commuting minimal action. Namely, we show that there is a one-to-one correspondence between the C^?-subalgebras that are globally invariant under the compact action and the commuting minimal action, that in addition contain the fixed point algebra of the compact action and the closed, normal subgroups of the compact group.

Infinite-dimensional linear groups with restrictions on subgroups that are not soluble <Emphasis Type="Italic">A</Emphasis><Subscript>3</Subscript>-groups

We are concerned with infinite-dimensional locally soluble linear groups of infinite central dimension that are not soluble A₃-groups and all of whose proper subgroups, which are not soluble A₃-groups, have finite central dimension. The structure of groups in this class is described. The case of infinite-dimensional locally nilpotent linear groups satisfying the specified conditions is treated separately. A similar problem is solved for infinite-dimensional locally soluble linear groups of infinite fundamental dimension that are not soluble A₃-groups and all of whose proper subgroups, which are not soluble A₃-groups, have finite fundamental dimension. __________ Translated from Algebra i Logika, Vol. 46, No. 5, pp. 548–559, September–October, 2007.     

Smooth Groups

A group is called smooth if it has a finite maximal chain of subgroups in which any two intervals of the same length are isomorphic (as lattices). We show that every finite smooth group G is a semidirect product of a p-group by a cyclic group; in particular, G is soluble. We determine the exact structure of G if G is not a p-group.
