Subnormal structure of non-stable unitary groups over rings

Let R be a commutative ring with identity in which 2 is invertible. Let H denote a subgroup of the unitary group U(2n,R,Λ) with n≥4. H is normalized by EU(2n,J,Γ^J) for some form ideal (J,Γ^J) of the form ring (R,Λ). The purpose of the paper is to prove that H satisfies a “sandwich” property, i.e. there exists a form ideal (I,Γ^I) such that

EU(2n,IJ⁸Γ^J,Γ)⊆H⊆CU(2n,I,Γ^I).
