A family of maximal subgroups containing the Sylow subgroups and some solvability conditions

Some Sylow Subgroups

POS-groups with some cyclic Sylow subgroups

A finite group G is said to be a POS-group if for each x in G the cardinality of the set {y in G | o(y) = o(x)} is a divisor of the order of G. In this paper we study the structure of POS-groups with some cyclic Sylow subgroups.

Invariant Sylow subgroups and solvability of finite groups

Let A and G be finite groups of relatively prime orders and assume that A acts on G via automorphisms. We study how certain conditions on G imply its solvability when we assume the existence of a unique A-invariant Sylow p-subgroup for p equal to 2 or 3. Mathematics Subject Classification (2010).

ON c-SUPPLEMENTED MAXIMAL AND MINIMAL SUBGROUPS OF SYLOW SUBGROUPS OF FINITE GROUPS

This paper proves: Let F be a saturated formation containing U . Suppose that G is a group with a normal subgroup H such that G/H ∈ F . (1) If all maximal subgroups of any Sylow subgroup of F ∗(H) are c-supplemented in G, then G ∈ F ; (2) If all minimal subgroups and all cyclic subgroups with order 4 of F ∗(H) are c-supplemented in G, then G ∈ F .

Sylow Subgroups in Parallel

Sylow subgroups are fundamental in the design of asymptotically efficient group-theoretic algorithms, just as they have been in the study of the structure of Ž . finite groups. We present efficient parallel NC algorithms for finding and conjugating Sylow subgroups of permutation groups, as well as for related problems. Polynomial-time solutions to these problems were obtained more than a dozen ...
