Influence of permutizers of subgroups on the structure of finite groups

A group G is said to satisfy the maximal permutizer condition if the permutizer of any maximal subgroup M of G in G, P_G(M), is G. In this paper, we characterize the supersolubility of finite groups by using the maximal permutizer condition. We also get some results for when both G/N and N are supersoluble, which implies that G is supersoluble. Our results unify or generalize some known results.     

Joint spectrum and the infinite dihedral group

A subgroup H of a group G is called pronormal if, for any element g ∈ G, the subgroups H and H ^g are conjugate in the subgroup <H,H ^g >. We prove that, if a group G has a normal abelian subgroup V and a subgroup H such that G = HV, then H is pronormal in G if and only if U = N _U (H)[H,U] for any H-invariant subgroup U of V. Using this fact, we prove that the simple symplectic group PSp_6n (q) with q ≡ ±3 (mod 8) contains a nonpronormal subgroup of odd index. Hence, we disprove the conjecture on the pronormality of subgroups of odd indices in finite simple groups, which was formulated in 2012 by E.P. Vdovin and D.O. Revin and verified by the authors in 2015 for many families of simple finite groups.     

On the strongly closed subgroups or H-subgroups of finite groups

Let G be a finite group. Goldschmidt, Flores, and Foote investigated the concept: Let K ≤ G. A subgroup H of K is called strongly closed in K with respect to G if H ^g ∩ K ≤ H for all g ∈ G. In particular, when H is a subgroup of prime-power order and K is a Sylow subgroup containing it, H is simply said to be a strongly closed subgroup. Bianchi and the others called a subgroup H of G an H-subgroup if N _G (H) ∩ H ^g ≤ H for all g ∈ G. In fact, an H-subgroup of prime power order is the same as a strongly closed subgroup. We give the characterizations of finite non-T-groups whose maximal subgroups of even order are solvable T-groups by H-subgroups or strongly closed subgroups. Moreover, the structure of finite non-T-groups whose maximal subgroups of even order are solvable T-groups may be difficult to give if we do not use normality.     

On the Properties of Plesio-Uniform Subgroups in Lie Groups

The paper is devoted to the study of properties of a class of subgroups H in Lie groups G that was recently introduced by the author. A closed subgroup H in a Lie group G is said to be plesio-uniform if there is a closed subgroup P of G that contains H and for which P is uniform in G and H is quasi-uniform in P. In the paper we give answers to several natural questions concerning plesio-uniform subgroups. It is proved that one obtains the same notion of plesio-uniformity when transposing the conditions of uniformity and quasi-uniformity in the definition of plesio-uniformity of a subgroup. If a closed subgroup H of G contains a plesio-uniform subgroup, then H is also plesio-uniform. Other properties of plesio-uniform subgroups are also considered.     

Maximal subgroups and PST-groups

A subgroup H of a group G is said 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 maximal 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 of Kaplan’s results, which enables a better understanding of the relationships between these classes.     

On K-ℙ-subnormal subgroups of finite groups

A subgroup H of a group G is said to be K-?-subnormal in G if H can be joined to the group by a chain of subgroups each of which is either normal in the next subgroup or of prime index in it. Properties of K-?-subnormal subgroups are obtained. A class of finite groups whose Sylow p-subgroups are K-?-subnormal in G for every p in a given set of primes is studied. Some products of K-?-subnormal subgroups are investigated.     

s-Permutably embedded subgroups and p-supersolvable groups

Let G be a finite group,and H a subgroup of G.H is called s-permutably embedded in G if each Sylow subgroup of H is a Sylow subgroup of some s-permutable subgroup of G.In this paper,we use s-permutably embedding property of subgroups to characterize the p-supersolvability of finite groups,and obtain some interesting results which improve some recent results.     

On weakly S-embedded and weakly τ-embedded subgroups

Let G be a finite group. A subgroup H of G is said to be weakly S-embedded in G if there exists a normal subgroup K of G such that HK is S-quasinormal in G and H ∩ K ≤ H _seG , where H _seG is the subgroup generated by all those subgroups of H which are S-quasinormally embedded in G. We say that a subgroup H of G is weakly τ-embedded in G if there exists a normal subgroup K of G such that HK is S-quasinormal in G and H ∩ K ≤ H _seG , where H _seG is the subgroup generated by all those subgroups of H which are τ-quasinormal in G. In this paper, we study the properties of weakly S-embedded and weakly τ-embedded subgroups, and use them to determine the structure of finite groups.     

On SS-quasinormal and S-quasinormally embedded subgroups of finite groups

A subgroup H of a group G is said to be an SS-quasinormal (Supplement-Sylow-quasinormal) subgroup if there is a subgroup B of G such that HB = G and H permutes with every Sylow subgroup of B. A subgroup H of a group G is said to be S-quasinormally embedded inGif for every Sylow subgroup P of H, there is an S-quasinormal subgroup K in G such that P is also a Sylow subgroup of K. Groups with certain SS-quasinormal or S-quasinormally embedded subgroups of prime power order are studied.     

On the products of ℙ-subnormal subgroups of finite groups

A subgroup H of a finite group G is called ℙ-subnormal in G whenever H either coincides with G or is connected to G by a chain of subgroups of prime indices. If every Sylow subgroup of G is ℙ-subnormal in G then G is called a w-supersoluble group. We obtain some properties of ℙ-subnormal subgroups and the groups that are products of two ℙ-subnormal subgroups, in particular, of ℙ-subnormal w-supersoluble subgroups.     

On Nearly SS-Embedded Subgroups of Finite Groups

Let H be a subgroup of a finite group G. H is nearly SS-embedded in G if there exists an S-quasinormal subgroup K of G, such that HK is S-quasinormal in G and H ∩ K ≤ HseG, where HseG is the subgroup of H, generated by all those subgroups of H which are S-quasinormally embedded in G. In this paper, the authors investigate the influence of nearly SS-embedded subgroups on the structure of finite groups.     

Every 2-group with all subgroups normal-by-finite is locally finite

A group G has all of its subgroups normal-by-finite if H/H _G is finite for all subgroups H of G. The Tarski-groups provide examples of p-groups (p a “large” prime) of nonlocally finite groups in which every subgroup is normal-by-finite. The aim of this paper is to prove that a 2-group with every subgroup normal-by-finite is locally finite. We also prove that if |H/H _G | 6 2 for every subgroup H of G, then G contains an Abelian subgroup of index at most 8.     

A characterization of the hypercyclically embedded subgroups of finite groups

A normal subgroup H of a finite group G is said to be hypercyclically embedded in G if every chief factor of G below H is cyclic. The major aim of the present paper is to characterize the normal hypercyclically embedded subgroups E of a group G by means of the embedding of the maximal and minimal subgroups of the Sylow subgroups of the generalized Fitting subgroup of E.     

Products of F*(<Emphasis Type="Italic">G</Emphasis>)-subnormal subgroups of finite groups

A subgroup H of a finite group G is called F*(G)-subnormal if H is subnormal in HF*(G). We show that if a group Gis a product of two F*(G)-subnormal quasinilpotent subgroups, then G is quasinilpotent. We also study groups G = AB, where A is a nilpotent F*(G)-subnormal subgroup and B is a F*(G)-subnormal supersoluble subgroup. Particularly, we show that such groups G are soluble.     

Finite Groups in which SS-Permutability is a Transitive Relation

A subgroup H of a finite group G is said to be SS-permutable in G if H has a supplement K in G such that H permutes with every Sylow subgroup of K. A finite group G is called an SST-group if SS-permutability is a transitive relation on the set of all subgroups of G. The structure of SST-groups is investigated in this paper.     

Some new characterizations of solvable PST-groups

A subgroup H of a finite group G is said to be ??-semipermutable in G if it permutes with all the Sylow subgroups Q of G such that (|H|, |Q|) = 1 and (|H|, |Q ^G |) ?? 1. A rather remarkable result of Lukyanenko and Skiba (Rend Semin Mat Univ Padova, 124:231?C246, 2010) is: a finite solvable group G is a PST-group if and only if every subgroup of Fit(G) is ??-semipermutable. A local version of this result is established in this paper. A subgroup H of G is said to be ??-seminormal provided that it is normalized by all Sylow subgroups Q such that (|H|, |Q|) =?1 and (|H|, |Q ^G |) ???1. It is shown that a finite solvable group is a PST-group if and only if every subgroup of Fit(G) is ??-seminormal in G.     

Finite groups with given nearly s-embedded subgroups

Let G be a finite group and H a subgroup of G. We say that H is s-permutable in G if HP = PH for all Sylow subgroups P of G; H is s-semipermutable in G if HP = PH for all Sylow subgroups P of G with (|P|, |H|) = 1. Let H _s G be the subgroup of H generated by all those subgroups of G which are s-permutable in G and H ^sG the intersection of all such s-permutable subgroups of G contain H. We say that H is nearly s-embedded in G if G has an s-permutable subgroup T such that H ^sG = HT and \({H \cap T \leqq H_{ssG}}\) , where H _ssG is an s-semipermutable subgroup of G contained in H. In this paper, we study the structure of a finite group G under the assumption that some subgroups of prime power order are nearly s-embedded in G. A series of known results are improved and extended.     

c*-Quasinormally embedded subgroups of finite groups

Suppose that G is a finite group and H is a subgroup of G. H is said to be s-quasinormally embedded in G if for each prime p dividing |H|, a Sylow p-subgroup of H is also a Sylow p-subgroup of some s-quasinormal subgroup of G; H is called c*-quasinormally embedded in G if there is a subgroup T of G such that G = HT and H??T is s-quasinormally embedded in G. We investigate the influence of c*-quasinormally embedded subgroups on the structure of finite groups. Some recent results are generalized.     

Weakly s-supplemented subgroups and p-nilpotency of finite groups

A subgroup H of a group G is said to be weakly s-supplemented in G if there is a subgroup T of G such that G = HT and H ∩ T ≤ H _sG , where H _sG is the maximal s-permutable subgroup of G contained in H. In this paper, we investigate the influence of weakly s-supplemented subgroups on the structure of finite groups. Some recent results are generalized.
