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.     

On second maximal subgroups of Sylow subgroups of finite groups

Finite groups in which the second maximal subgroups of the Sylow p-subgroups, p a fixed prime, cover or avoid the chief factors of some of its chief series are completely classified.     

On the normal indices of proper subgroups of finite groups

We extended the normal index from maximal subgroups to proper subgroups. We give a quantitative version of all results obtained by using c-normal subgroups and obtain some new characterizations of solvable, supersolvable and nilpotent groups by the normal indices of proper subgroups.     

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.     

The influence of $\pi$-quasinormality of some subgroups of a finite group

A subgroup H of G is said to be $\pi$-quasinormal in G if it permute with every Sylow subgroup of G. In this paper, we extend the study on the structure of a finite group under the assumption that some subgroups of G are $\pi$-quasinormal in G. The main result we proved in this paper is the following:Theorem 3.4. Let ${\cal F}$ be a saturated formation containing the supersolvable groups. Suppose that G is a group with a normal subgroup H such that $G/H \in {\cal F}$, and all maximal subgroups of any Sylow subgroup of $F^{*}(H)$ are $\pi$-quasinormal in G, then $G \in {\cal F}$.

On c-normality of certain subgroups of prime power order of finite groups

In this paper, we study the structure of the finite group G given that certain subgroups of prime power order are well-situated, which means that they are normally complemented modulo their normal core.Received: 14 October 2004; revised: 12 January 2005     

The influence of minimal subgroups on the structure of finite groups

We are interested to study the structure of a finite group G under the assumption that all minimal subgroups of G are well-situated in G.     

Coleman automorphisms of finite groups and their minimal normal subgroups

In this paper, we show that all Coleman automorphisms of a finite group with self-central minimal non-trivial characteristic subgroup are inner; therefore the normalizer property holds for these groups. Using our methods we show that the holomorph and wreath product of finite simple groups, among others, have no non-inner Coleman automorphisms. As a further application of our theorems, we provide partial answers to questions raised by M. Hertweck and W. Kimmerle. Furthermore, we characterize the Coleman automorphisms of extensions of a finite nilpotent group by a cyclic p-group. Finally, we note that class-preserving Coleman automorphisms of p-power order of some nilpotent-by-nilpotent groups are inner, extending a result by J. Hai and J. Ge, where p is a prime number.     

On semi cover-avoiding subgroups of finite groups

A subgroup H of a finite group G is said to have the semi cover-avoiding property in G if there is a normal series of G such that H covers or avoids every normal factor of the series. In this paper, some new results are obtained based on the assumption that some subgroups have the semi cover-avoiding property in the group.     

Two-generator subgroups of soluble groups and their Fitting subgroups

For soluble groups, the Fitting length is bounded by a function of the maximum order of the Fitting subgroups of 2-generator subgroups.     

On chief factors of finite groups

Let H and K be normal subgroups of a finite group G and let K≤H. If A is a subgroup of G such that AH=AK or A∩H=A∩K, we say that A covers or avoids H/K respectively. The purpose of this paper is to investigate factor groups of a finite group G using this concept. We get some characterizations of a finite group being solvable or supersolvable and generalize some known results.     

Notes on the length of conjugacy classes of finite groups

The purpose of this paper is to investigate influences of lengths of conjugacy classes of finite groups on the structure of finite groups. We get a necessary and sufficient condition for a finite group G to be equal to O_p(G)×O_p^′(G). We also generalize some results (Comm. Algebra 27 (9) (1999) 4347).     

Problems related to the Lockett Conjecture on Fitting classes of finite groups

The existence of a solvable non-normal Fitting class F which is not a Lockett class but for which the Lockett Conjecture still holds are studied. We also prove that there exists an ω-local Fitting class F which does not satisfy the Lockett conjecture but the Lockett conjecture still holds under a given condition. As a consequence of our result, a generalized version of the Lausch's problem in the well-known Kourovka Notebook is answered.     

Maximal cyclic subgroups and prime divisors in finite groups

Let G be a finite group with no chief factor simple of Lie type E ₈(q) and C a cyclic subgroup of largest order in G. It is shown that at most two primes in the open interval ([|C|/2], |C|) divide |G|.Received: 14 January 2005     

Remarks on the length of conjugacy classes of finite groups

Let G be a finite group. The question of how certain arithmetical conditions on the lengths of the conjugacy classes of G influence the group structure has been studied by several authors. In this paper we study restrictions on the structure of a finite group in which the lengths of conjugacy classes are not divisible by p ² for some prime p. We generalise and provide simplified proofs for some earlier results.     

Some results on supersolvability of finite groups

On $${\mathcal{F}}$$ -supplemented subgroups of finite groups

Let G be a finite group and a formation of finite groups. We say that a subgroup H of G is -supplemented in G if there exists a subgroup T of G such that G = TH and is contained in the -hypercenter of G/H _G . In this paper, we use -supplemented subgroups to study the structure of finite groups. A series of previously known results are unified and generalized.

F-S-可补的子群对有限群结构的影响

设F是一个群系.群G的一个子群H在G中F-S-可补,如果存在G的子群K,使得G=HK且K/K∩HG∈F,其中HG表示G包含在H中的最大的正规子群.本文利用群系理论研究子群的F-S-可补性对有限群结构的影响,得到如下结论:设F是子群闭的局部群系,G是有限群且GF是可解的.则G∈F的充要条件是下列条件之一:(1)G存在正规子群N使得G/N∈F且N的极小子群及4阶循环子群(p=2)均在G中F-S-可补.(2)G存在正规子群N使得G/N∈F,N的4阶循环子群在G中有F-S-补且N的极小子群皆包含在Z∞F(G)中.应用这些结论,可以得到一些推论,其中包括已知的相关结果.
