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.     

Finite groups with seminormal Sylow subgroups

In this paper, we prove the following theorem： Let p be a prime number, P a Sylow psubgroup of a group G and π = π（G） ／ {p}. If P is seminormal in G, then the following statements hold： 1） G is a p-soluble group and P＇ ≤ Op（G）; 2） lp（G） ≤ 2 and lπ（G） ≤ 2; 3） if a π-Hall subgroup of G is q-supersoluble for some q ∈ π, then G is q-supersoluble.     

Finite groups with some pronormal subgroups

A subgroup H of finite group G is called pronormal in G if for every element x of G, H is conjugate to H ^x in 〈H, H ^x 〉. A finite group G is called PRN-group if every cyclic subgroup of G of prime order or order 4 is pronormal in G. In this paper, we find all PRN-groups and classify minimal non-PRN-groups (non-PRN-group all of whose proper subgroups are PRN-groups). At the end of the paper, we also classify the finite group G, all of whose second maximal subgroups are PRN-groups.     

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.     

Groups whose cyclic subgroups have bounded permutability properties

It follows from classical results of Neumann and Macdonald that a group G has finite commuator subgroup if and only if either the normalizers of cyclic subgroups of G have boundedly finite indices or cyclic subgroups of G have bounded indices in their normal closures. In this paper, groups with a similar condition are considered, when normality is replaced by permutability.      

On weakly S-embedded subgroups of finite groups

Let H be a subgroup of a group G.Then H is said to be S-quasinormal in G if HP = P H for every Sylow subgroup P of G;H is said to be S-quasinormally embedded in G if a Sylow p-subgroup of H is also a Sylow p-subgroup of some S-quasinormal subgroup of G for each prime p dividing the order of H.In this paper,we say that H is weakly S-embedded in G if G has a normal subgroup T such that HT is an S-quasinormal subgroup of G and H ∩ T≤H SE,where H SE denotes the subgroup of H generated by all those subgroups of ...     

Criteria of existence of Hall subgroups in non-soluble finite groups

In this paper, the famous Hall theorem and the famous Schur-Zassenhaus theorem are generalized.     

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.     

Finite groups with some given systems of Xm‐semipermutable subgroups

Let X be a nonempty subset of a group G. We call a subgroup A of G an X_m‐semipermutable subgroup of G if A has a minimal supplement T in G such that for every maximal subgroup M of any Hall subgroup T₁ of T there exists an element x ∈ X such that AM^x = M^xA. In this paper, we study the structure of finite groups with some given systems of X_m‐semipermutable subgroups (© 2010 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)     

Statistical properties of subgroups of free groups

The usual way to investigate the statistical properties of finitely generated subgroups of free groups, and of finite presentations of groups, is based on the so‐called word‐based distribution: subgroups are generated (finite presentations are determined) by randomly chosen k ‐tuples of reduced words, whose maximal length is allowed to tend to infinity. In this paper we adopt a different, though equally natural point of view: we investigate the statistical properties of the same objects, but with respect to the so‐called graph‐based distribution, recently introduced by Bassino, Nicaud and Weil. Here, subgroups (and finite presentations) are determined by randomly chosen Stallings graphs whose number of vertices tends to infinity. Our results show that these two distributions behave quite differently from each other, shedding a new light on which properties of finitely generated subgroups can be considered frequent or rare. For example, we show that malnormal subgroups of a free group are negligible in the graph‐based distribution, while they are exponentially generic in the word‐based distribution. Quite surprisingly, a random finite presentation generically presents the trivial group in this new distribution, while in the classical one it is known to generically present an infinite hyperbolic group. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The influence of X-semipermutability of subgroups on the structure of finite groups

Let A be a subgroup of a group G and X be a nonempty subset of G. A is said to be X-semipermutable in G if A has a supplement T in G such that A is X-permutable with every subgroup of T. In this paper, we investigate further the influence of X-semipermutability of some subgroups on the structure of finite groups. Some new criteria for a group G to be supersoluble or p-nilpotent are obtained.     

Exponent preserving subgroups of the finite simple groups

Given a group G denote with exp(G) its exponent, which is the least common multiple of the order of its elements. In this paper, we solve the problem of finding the finite simple groups having a proper subgroup with the same exponent. For each G with this property we will provide an explicit example of H<G with exp(G)?=?exp(H).     

On finite groups with non-subnormal subgroups

For a finite group G, let n(G) denote the number of conjugacy classes of non-subnormal subgroups of G. In this paper, we show that a finite group G satisfying n(G)≤2|π(G)| is solvable, and for a finite non-solvable group G, n(G) = 2|π(G)|+1 if and only if G?A₅.     

Finite groups with seminormal Schmidt subgroups

A non-nilpotent finite group whose proper subgroups are all nilpotent is called a Schmidt group. A subgroup A is said to be seminormal in a group G if there exists a subgroup B such that G = AB and AB₁ is a proper subgroup of G, for every proper subgroup B₁ of B. Groups that contain seminormal Schmidt subgroups of even order are considered. In particular, we prove that a finite group is solvable if all Schmidt {2, 3}-subgroups and all 5-closed {2, 5}-Schmidt subgroups of the group are seminormal; the classification of finite groups is not used in so doing. Examples of groups are furnished which show that no one of the requirements imposed on the groups is unnecessary. Supported by BelFBR grant Nos.

On complemented subgroups of finite groups

A subgroup H of a group G is said to be complemented in G if there exists a subgroup K of G such that G = HK and H ⋂ K = 1. In this paper we determine the structure of finite groups with some complemented primary subgroups, and obtain some new results about p-nilpotent groups.
