Based on the fact that, for a subfactor N of a II1factor M, the first nontrivial Jones index is two and then M is decomposed as the crossed product of N by an outer action of ℤ2, we study pairs {N, uNu*} from the view-point of entropy for two subalgebras of M in connection with the entropy for automorphisms, where the inclusion of II1factors N ⊂ M is given with M being the crossed product of N by a finite group of outer automorphisms and u is a unitary in M.

AbstractLet $w$ be a multilinear commutator word. We prove that if $e$ is a positive integer and $G$ is a finite group in which any nilpotent subgroup generated by $w$-values has exponent dividing $e$, then the exponent of the corresponding verbal subgroup $w(G)$ is bounded in terms of $e$ and $w$only.

Abstract We show that if w is a multilinear commutator word and G a finite group in which every metanilpotent subgroup generated by w-values is of rank at most r, then the rank of the verbal subgroup $w(G)$ is bounded in terms of r and w only. In the case where G is soluble, we obtain a better result: if G is a finite soluble group in which every nilpotent subgroup generated by w-values is of rank at most r, then the rank of $w(G)$ is at most $r+1$ .

Abstract A rigid automorphism of a linking system is an automorphism that restricts to the identity on the Sylow subgroup. A rigid inner automorphism is conjugation by an element in the center of the Sylow subgroup. At odd primes, it is known that each rigid automorphism of a centric linking system is inner. We prove that the group of rigid outer automorphisms of a linking system at the prime $2$ is elementary abelian and that it splits over the subgroup of rigid inner automorphisms. In a second result, we show that if an automorphism of a finite group G restricts to the identity on the centric linking system for G, then it is of $p'$ -order modulo the group of inner automorphisms, provided G has no nontrivial normal $p'$ -subgroups. We present two applications of this last result, one to tame fusion systems.

Let [Formula: see text] be a partition of the set [Formula: see text] of all primes and [Formula: see text] a finite group. A chief factor [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] is said to be [Formula: see text]-central if the semidirect product [Formula: see text] is a [Formula: see text]-group for some [Formula: see text]. [Formula: see text] is called [Formula: see text]-nilpotent if every chief factor of [Formula: see text] is [Formula: see text]-central. We say that [Formula: see text] is semi-[Formula: see text]-nilpotent (respectively, weakly semi-[Formula: see text]-nilpotent) if the normalizer [Formula: see text] of every non-normal (respectively, every non-subnormal) [Formula: see text]-nilpotent subgroup [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] is [Formula: see text]-nilpotent. In this paper we determine the structure of finite semi-[Formula: see text]-nilpotent and weakly semi-[Formula: see text]-nilpotent groups.

The weights for a finite group G with respect to a prime number p were introduced by Jon Alperin, in order to formulate his celebrated conjecture. In 1992, Everett Dade formulated a refinement of Alperin's conjecture involving ordinary irreducible characters — with their defect — and, in 2000, Geoffrey Robinson proved that the new conjecture holds for p-solvable groups. But this refinement is formulated in terms of a vanishing alternating sum, without giving any possible refinement for the weights. In this note we show that, in the case of the p-solvable finite groups, the method developed in a previous paper can be suitably refined to provide, up to the choice of a polarization ω, a natural bijection — namely compatible with the action of the group of outer automorphisms of G — between the sets of absolutely irreducible characters of G and of G-conjugacy classes of suitable inductive weights, preserving blocks and defects.

Let $G$ be a finite group. We denote by ${\it\nu}(G)$ the probability that two randomly chosen elements of $G$ generate a nilpotent subgroup and by $\text{Nil}_{G}(x)$ the set of elements $y\in G$ such that $\langle x,y\rangle$ is a nilpotent subgroup. A group $G$ is called an ${\mathcal{N}}$-group if $\text{Nil}_{G}(x)$ is a subgroup of $G$ for all $x\in G$. We prove that if $G$ is an ${\mathcal{N}}$-group with ${\it\nu}(G)>\frac{1}{12}$, then $G$ is soluble. Also, we classify semisimple ${\mathcal{N}}$-groups with ${\it\nu}(G)=\frac{1}{12}$.
