Maximal Sylow Subgroups of a Given Group

The Sylow Subgroups of the Symmetric Group

In the Sylow theorems f we learn that if the order of a group 2Í is divisible hj pa (p a prime integer) and not by jo*+1, then 31 contains one and only one set of conjugate subgroups of order pa, and any subgroup of 21 whose order is a power of p is a subgroup of some member of this set of conjugate subgroups of 2Í. These conjugate subgroups may be called the Sylow subgroups of 21. It will be o...

A New Finite Simple Group with Abelian 2-sylow Subgroups.

A 2-Sylow subgroup of J is elementary abelian of order 8 and J has no subgroup of index 2. If r is an involution in J, then C(r) = (r) X K, where K _ A5. Let G be a finite group with the following properties: (a) S2-subgroups of G are abelian; (b) G has no subgroup of index 2; and (c) G contains an involution t such that 0(t) = (t) X F, where F A5. Then G is a (new) simple group isomorphic to J...

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 ...
