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.     

Determinazione deiT 2-gruppi finiti

Summary A T-group is a group in which normality is transitive, a T₁-group is a group which is not a T-group but all of whose proper subgroups are T-groups, and a T₂-group is a group which is not a T- group or a T₁-group but all of whose proper subgroups are T-groups or T₁-groups. In this note we determine all the finite T₂-groups, and we show that all T₂-groups which are either soluble or 2-groups are finite. We study also the groups in which every proper soluble subgroup is a T-group or a T₁-group.

On finite groups with generalized σ-subnormal Schmidt subgroups

Let G be a finite group and σ?=?{σ_i|i∈I} some partition of the set of all primes. A subgroup A of G is said to be generalized σ-subnormal in G if A?=??L,T?, where L is a modular subgroup and T is a σ-subnormal subgroup of G. In this paper, we prove that if every Schmidt subgroup of G is generalized σ-subnormal in G, then the commutator subgroup G^′ of G is σ-nilpotent.     

A Classification of Minimal Non-MNP-Groups

A finite group G is called an MNP-group if all maximal subgroups of every Sylow subgroup of G are normal in G. In this article, we give a complete classification of those groups which are not MNP-groups but all of whose proper subgroups are MNP-groups.     

Finite groups in which all p-subnormal subgroups form a lattice

O. Kegel, in 1962, introduced the concept of p-subnormal subgroups of a finite group as the subgroups whose intersections with all Sylow p-subgroups of the group are Sylow p-subgroups of the subgroup. The set of p-subnormal subgroup of a finite group is not a lattice in general. In this paper, the class of all finite groups in which all p-subnormal subgroups from a lattice is determined. This is the class of all finite p-soluble groups whose p-length and p′-length, both, are less or equal to 1. The join-semilattice case and the meet-semilattice case are analyzed separately.

Finite groups with ℱ-subnormal conditions

Let ? be a subgroup-closed saturated formation. A finite group G is called an ?_pc-group provided that each subgroup X of G is ?-subabnormal in the ?-subnormal closure of X in G. Let ?_pc be the class of all ?_pc-groups. We study some properties of ? _pc-groups and describe the structure of ?_pc-groups when ? is the class of all soluble π-closed groups, where π is a given nonempty set of prime numbers.     

Subgroups of powerful groups

We consider subgroups of powerfulp-groups. In particular, we give a new proof that allp-groups are sections of powerfulp-groups, give necessary and sufficient conditions for a 2-generator group to be a normal subgroup of a powerfulp-groups, and show thatp-groups of class 2, orp-groups with a cyclic commutator subgroup, are such normal subgroups.     

On <Emphasis Type="Italic">T</Emphasis>-groups,supersolvable groups,and maximal subgroups

A group is called a T-group if all its subnormal subgroups are normal. Finite T-groups have been widely studied since the seminal paper of Gaschütz (J. Reine Angew. Math. 198 (1957), 87–92), in which he described the structure of finite solvable T-groups. We call a finite group G an NNM-group if each non-normal subgroup of G is contained in a non-normal maximal subgroup of G. Let G be a finite group. Using the concept of NNM-groups, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for G to be a solvable T-group (Theorem 1), and sufficient conditions for G to be supersolvable (Theorems 5, 7 and Corollary 6).     

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.     

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.     

On a Note From Oliver Concerning Generalized Euclidean Group Rings

In an unpublished 1987 letter, Bob Oliver determined which elementary abelian 2-groups have generalized euclidean integral group rings. He produced a filtration of E ₂(R) by normal subgroups, sandwiched between elementary and special linear relative groups, with layers that are second homology groups with mod-2 coefficients. His proof is presented here, with related consequences for some other 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.     

A {\mathfrak{U}_m}-subnormal subgroup of a finite group

A \({\mathfrak{U}_m}\)-subnormal subgroup of a finite group is introduced, some new characterizations of the hypercyclically embedded subgroups of a finite group are obtained and a series of known results is generalized.     

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.     

Permutable subnormal subgroups of finite groups

The aim of this paper is to prove certain characterization theorems for groups in which permutability is a transitive relation, the so called -groups. In particular, it is shown that the finite solvable -groups, the finite solvable groups in which every subnormal subgroup of defect two is permutable, the finite solvable groups in which every normal subgroup is permutable sensitive, and the finite solvable groups in which conjugate-permutability and permutability coincide are all one and the same class. This follows from our main result which says that the finite modular p-groups, p a prime, are those p-groups in which every subnormal subgroup of defect two is permutable or, equivalently, in which every normal subgroup is permutable sensitive. However, there exist finite insolvable groups which are not -groups but all subnormal subgroups of defect two are permutable. Received: 13 August 2008     

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.     

New Characterizations of p-Supersolubility of Finite Groups

Let H be a subgroup of a finite group G. H is said to be λ-supplemented in G if G has a subgroup T such that G = HT and H ∩ T ≤ H _SE , where H _SE denotes the subgroup of H generated by all those subgroups of H, which are S-quasinormally embedded in G. In this article, some results about the λ-supplemented subgroups are obtained, by which we determine the structure of some classes of finite groups. In particular, some new characterizations of p-supersolubility of finite groups are given under the assumption that some primary subgroups are λ-supplemented. As applications, a number of previous known results are generalized.     

On finite Alperin 2-groups with elementary abelian second commutants

By an Alperin group we mean a group in which the commutant of each 2-generated subgroup is cyclic. Alperin proved that if p is an odd prime then all finite p-groups with this property are metabelian. The today??s actual problem is the construction of examples of nonmetabelian finite Alperin 2-groups. Note that the author had given some examples of finite Alperin 2-groups with second commutants isomorphic to Z ₂ and Z ₄ and proved the existence of finite Alperin 2-groups with cyclic second commutants of however large order by appropriate examples. In this article the existence is proved of finite Alperin 2-groups with abelian second commutants of however large rank.     

Groups with many subgroups having a transitive normality relation

A group is said to be aT-group if all its subnormal subgroups are normal. The structure of groups satisfying the minimal condition on subgroups that do not have the propertyT is investigated. Moreover, locally soluble groups with finitely many conjugacy classes of subgroups which are notT-groups are characterized.     

ON MINIMAL NON-<Emphasis Type="Italic">MSP</Emphasis>-GROUPS

A finite group G is called an MSP-group if all maximal subgroups of the Sylow subgroups of G are S-quasinormal in G: We give a complete classification of groups that are not MSP-groups but all their proper subgroups are MSP-groups.
