Podoski and Szegedy [‘On finite groups whose derived subgroup has bounded rank’, Israel J. Math.178 (2010), 51–60] proved that for a finite group $G$ with rank $r$, the inequality $[G:Z_{2}(G)]\leq |G^{\prime }|^{2r}$ holds. In this paper we omit the finiteness condition on $G$ and show that groups with finite derived subgroup satisfy the same inequality. We also construct an $n$-capable group which is not $(n+1)$-capable for every $n\in \mathbf{N}$.

AbstractLetGbe a finite group. In this paper we obtain some sufficient conditions for the supersolubility ofGwith two supersoluble non-conjugate subgroupsHandKof prime index, not necessarily distinct. It is established that the supersoluble residual of such a group coincides with the nilpotent residual of the derived subgroup. We prove thatGis supersoluble in the following cases: one of the subgroupsHorKis nilpotent; the derived subgroup{G^{\prime}}ofGis nilpotent;{|G:H|=q>r=|G:K|}andHis normal inG. Also the supersolubility ofGwith two non-conjugate maximal subgroupsMandVis obtained in the following cases: all Sylow subgroups ofMand ofVare seminormal inG; all maximal subgroups ofMand ofVare seminormal inG.

The main result of this paper is the following:Theorem A. Let H and N be finite groups with coprime orders andsuppose that H acts nontrivially on N via automorphisms. Assume that Hfixes every nonlinear irreducible character of N. Then the derived subgroup ofN is nilpotent and so N is solvable of nilpotent length≦ 2.Why might one be interested in a situation like this? There has been considerable interest in the question of what one can deduce about a group Gfrom a knowledge of the setcd(G) = ﹛x(l)lx ∈ Irr(G) ﹜of irreducible character degrees of G.Recently, attention has been focused on the prime divisors of the elements of cd(G). For instance, in [9], O. Manz and R. Staszewski consider π-separable groups (for some set π of primes) with the property that every element of cd(G) is either a 77-number or a π'-number.

For a non-empty class of groups L, a finite group G=AB is said to be an L-connected product of the subgroups A and B if ⟨a,b⟩∈L for all a∈A and b∈B. In a previous paper, we prove that, for such a product, when L=S is the class of finite soluble groups, then [A,B] is soluble. This generalizes the theorem of Thompson that states the solubility of finite groups whose two-generated subgroups are soluble. In the present paper, our result is applied to extend to finite groups previous research about finite groups in the soluble universe. In particular, we characterize connected products for relevant classes of groups, among others, the class of metanilpotent groups and the class of groups with nilpotent derived subgroup. Additionally, we give local descriptions of relevant subgroups of finite groups.

AbstractIt is proved that if the normal closure of every element of a group G has rank at most r, then the derived subgroup of G has r-bounded rank.

AbstractFor an element g of a group G, an Engel sink is a subset ${\mathscr E}$(g) such that for every x ∈ G all sufficiently long commutators [. . .[[x, g], g], . . ., g] belong to ${\mathscr E}$(g). A finite group is nilpotent if and only if every element has a trivial Engel sink. We prove that if in a finite group G every element has an Engel sink generating a subgroup of rank r, then G has a normal subgroup N of rank bounded in terms of r such that G/N is nilpotent.
