the theorem 12 in [a note on $p$-nilpotence and solvability of finite groups, j. algebra 321(2009) 1555--1560.] investigated the non-abelian simple groups in which some maximal subgroups have primes indice. in this note we show that this result can be applied to prove that the finite groups in which every non-nilpotent maximal subgroup has prime index aresolvable.

The purpose of this note is to record for my algebra class a proof of the Inverse Galois Problem for finite abelian groups. Recall that the Inverse Galois Problem is stated as follows: Given a finite group G, is there a Galois extension Q ⊆ K such Gal(K/Q) = G? The crucial point in the problem is that the base field is Q, since given any finite group G, there is a Galois extension of fields F ⊆...

‎three infinite families of finite abelian groups will be‎ ‎described such that each member of these families has‎ ‎the r'edei $k$-property for many non-trivial values of $k$‎.
