Let σ={σi:i∈I} be a partition of the set P of all prime numbers and let G be a finite group. We say that G is σ-primary if all the prime factors of |G| belong to the same member of σ. G is said to be σ-soluble if every chief factor of G is σ-primary, and G is σ-nilpotent if it is a direct product of σ-primary groups. It is known that G has a largest normal σ-nilpotent subgroup which is denoted by Fσ(G). Let n be a non-negative integer. The n-term of the σ-Fitting series of G is defined inductively by F0(G)=1, and Fn+1(G)/Fn(G)=Fσ(G/Fn(G)). If G is σ-soluble, there exists a smallest n such that Fn(G)=G. This number n is called the σ-nilpotent length of G and it is denoted by lσ(G). If F is a subgroup-closed saturated formation, we define the σ-F-lengthnσ(G,F) of G as the σ-nilpotent length of the F-residual GF of G. The main result of the paper shows that if A is a maximal subgroup of G and G is a σ-soluble, then nσ(A,F)=nσ(G,F)−i for some i∈{0,1,2}.

LetMbe a maximal subgroup of finite groupG. For each chief factorH/KofGsuch thatK≤MandG=MH, we called the order ofH/Kthe normal index ofMandM∩H/Ka section ofMinG. Using the concepts of normal index andc-section, we obtain some new characterizations ofp-solvable, 2-supersolvable, andp-nilpotent.

Abstract Let {\mathfrak{X}} be a class of groups. A subgroup U of a group G is called {\mathfrak{X}} -maximal in G provided that (a) {U\in\mathfrak{X}} , and (b) if {U\leq V\leq G} and {V\in\mathfrak{X}} , then {U=V} . A chief factor {H/K} of G is called {\mathfrak{X}} -eccentric in G provided {(H/K)\rtimes G/C_{G}(H/K)\not\in\mathfrak{X}} . A group G is called a quasi- {\mathfrak{X}} -group if for every {\mathfrak{X}} -eccentric chief factor {H/K} and every {x\in G} , x induces an inner automorphism on {H/K} . We use {\mathfrak{X}^{*}} to denote the class of all quasi- {\mathfrak{X}} -groups. In this paper we describe all hereditary saturated formations {\mathfrak{F}} containing all nilpotent groups such that the {\mathfrak{F}^{*}} -hypercenter of G coincides with the intersection of all {\mathfrak{F}^{*}} -maximal subgroups of G for every group G.

Let [Formula: see text] be some partition of the set [Formula: see text] of all primes, that is, [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] for all [Formula: see text]. We say that a finite group [Formula: see text] is [Formula: see text]-soluble if every chief factor [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] is a [Formula: see text]-group for some [Formula: see text]. We give some characterizations of finite [Formula: see text]-soluble groups.

AbstractLetGbe a finite group with an abelian normal subgroupN. When doesNhave a unique conjugacy class of complements inG? We consider this question with a focus on properties of maximal subgroups. As corollaries we obtain Theorems 1.6 and 1.7 which are closely related to a result by Parker and Rowley on supplements of a nilpotent normal subgroup [3, Theorem 1]. Furthermore, we consider families of maximal subgroups ofGclosed under conjugation whose intersection equals{\Phi(G)}. In particular, we characterize the soluble groups having a unique minimal family with this property (Theorem 2.3, Remark 2.4). In the case when{\Phi(G)=1}, these are exactly the soluble groups in which each abelian normal subgroup has a unique conjugacy class of complements.

In this paper finite groups with the property M, that every maximal subgroup has prime or prime square index, are investigated. A short but ingenious argument was given by P. Hall which showed that such groups are solvable.B. Huppert showed that a finite group with the property M, that every maximal subgroup has prime index, is supersolvable, i.e. the chief factors are of prime order. We prove here, as a corollary of a more precise result, that if G has property M and is of odd order, then the chief factors of G are of prime or prime square order. The even-order case is different. For every odd prime p and positive integer m we shall construct a group of order 2apb with property M which has a chief factor of order larger than m.

Let G be a finite group with a nilpotent maximal subgroup S and let P denote the 2-Sylow subgroup of S. It is shown that if P ∩ Q is a normal subgroup of P for any 2-Sylow subgroup Q of G, then G is solvable.

For a positive integer n, we denote by π(n) the set of all prime divisors of n. For a finite group G, the set [Formula: see text] is called the prime spectrum of G. Let [Formula: see text] mean that M is a maximal subgroup of G. We put [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. In this notice, using well-known number-theoretical results, we present a number of examples to show that both K(G) and k(G) are unbounded in general. This implies that the problem “Are k(G) and K(G) bounded by some constant k?”, raised by Monakhov and Skiba in 2016, is solved in the negative.

AbstractLet G be a finite group and H, K two subgroups of G. A group G is said to be a mutually m-permutable product of H and K if G = HK and every maximal subgroup of H permutes with K and every maximal subgroup of K permutes with H. In this paper, we investigate the structure of a finite group that is a mutually m-permutable product of two subgroups under the assumption that its maximal subgroups are totally smooth.

AbstractLet G be a finite group and σ = {σi| i ∈ I} some partition of the set of all primes $\Bbb{P}$ . Then G is said to be: σ-primary if G is a σi-group for some i; σ-nilpotent if G = G1× … × Gt for some σ-primary groups G1, … , Gt; σ-soluble if every chief factor of G is σ-primary. We use $G^{{\mathfrak{N}}_{\sigma}}$ to denote the σ-nilpotent residual of G, that is, the intersection of all normal subgroups N of G with σ-nilpotent quotient G/N. If G is σ-soluble, then the σ-nilpotent length (denoted by lσ (G)) of G is the length of the shortest normal chain of G with σ-nilpotent factors. Let Nσ (G) be the intersection of the normalizers of the σ-nilpotent residuals of all subgroups of G, that is, $${N_\sigma }(G) = \bigcap\limits_{H \le G} {{N_G}} ({H^{{_\sigma }}}).$$ Then the subgroup Nσ (G) is called the σ-nilpotent norm of G. We study the relationship of the σ-nilpotent length with the σ-nilpotent norm of G. In particular, we prove that the σ-nilpotent length of a σ-soluble group G is at most r (r > 1) if and only if lσ (G/ Nσ (G)) ≤ r.

For a finite group $G$ , let $d(G)$ denote the minimal number of elements required to generate $G$ . In this paper, we prove sharp upper bounds on $d(H)$ whenever $H$ is a maximal subgroup of a finite almost simple group. In particular, we show that $d(H)\leqslant 5$ and that $d(H)\geqslant 4$ if and only if $H$ occurs in a known list. This improves a result of Burness, Liebeck and Shalev. The method involves the theory of crowns in finite groups.
