Parabolic subgroups in FC-type Artin groups

Parabolic subgroups are the building blocks of Artin groups. This paper extends previous results of Cumplido, Gebhardt, Gonzales-Meneses and Wiest, known only for parabolic subgroups of finite type Artin groups, to parabolic subgroups of FC-type Artin groups. We show that the class of finite type parabolic subgroups is closed under intersection. We also study an analog of the curve complex for mapping class group constructed by Cumplido et al. using parabolic subgroups. We extend the construction of this complex, called the complex of parabolic subgroups, to FC-type Artin groups. We show that this simplicial complex is, in most cases, infinite diameter and conjecture that it is δ-hyperbolic.     

Crystal Structure of Cesium Phenylacetylide,CsC2C6H5, Solved and Refined from Synchrotron Powder Diffraction Data

The crystal structure of cesium phenylacetylide, CsC₂C₆H₅, was solved and refined from synchrotron powder diffraction data (Pbca, Z = 8). Each Cs⁺ cation is coordinated by five ligands: four acetylide groups coordinate side‐on and one end‐on. A similar arrangement is found in the crystal structure of NaC₂H (P4/nmm, Z = 2). There is a group‐subgroup relationship between both structures. Most importantly, the crystal structure of CsC₂C₆H₅ could only be solved with the help of synchrotron data, as the very good peak:noise ratio allowed the assignment of several very weak reflections, which finally led to the correct space group, in which a structural solution was possible using direct space methods.     

Subgroups of totally imprimitive permutation groups

In this work the study of subgroups of totally imprimitive permutation groups is continued. Some sufficient conditions for the existence of minimal non-FC-subgroups are given. These results depend mainly on the properties of self-normalizing subgroups, which are closed in the topology of point-wise convergence. Finally, new properties of a totally imprimitive permutation p-group satisfying the cyclic-block property are given which might be a suitable example to look for minimal non-FC-subgroups.     

Nearly m-embedded subgroups and solvability of finite groups

A subgroup A of a finite group G is called {1≤G}-embedded in G if for each two subgroups K≤H of G, where K is a maximal subgroup of H, A either covers the pair (K,H) or avoids it. Moreover, a subgroup H of G is called nearly m-embedded in G if G has a subgroup T and a {1≤G}-embedded subgroup C such that G?=?HT and H∩T≤C≤H. In this paper, we mainly prove that G is solvable if and only if its Sylow 3-subgroups, Sylow 5-subgroups and Sylow 7-subgroups are nearly m-embedded in G.     

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.     

具有若干$c_p$-可补子群的有限群

设$H$为有限群$G$的子群且$p$为整除群$G$的阶的素因子. 我们称$H$在$G$中为$c_p$-可补的,如果$G$中存在$H$的包含$H_G$的补子群$T$使得$H\cap T/H_G$为$p''$-群, 其中$H_G$为$H$在$G$中的核. 群$G$ 称$CS_p$-群, 如果$G$的所有$p$-子群都在$G$中$c_p$-可补. 本文,我们刻画具有若干$c_p$-可补$p$-子群的有限群的$p$-可解性和$p$-超可解性. 此外,我们给出$p$-可解群为$CS_p$-群的若干等价条件. 最后, 我们给出两个$CS_p$-群的直积为$CS_p$-群的判别准则. 我们的结果推广了近期的若干结论.
