Suppose G = AB where G is a finite group and A and B are nilpotent subgroups. It is proved that the derived length of G modulo its Frattini subgroup is at most the sum of the classes of A and B. An upper bound for the derived length of G in terms of the derived lengths of A and B also is obtained.

A Finite Group

This paper is an attempt to provide a partial answer to the following question put forward by Bernhard H. Neumann in 2000: “Let G be a finite group of order g and assume that however a set M of m elements and a set N of n elements of the group is chosen, at least one element of M commutes with at least one element of N. What relations between g, m, n guarantee that G is Abelian?” We find an exponential function f(m,n) such that every such group G is Abelian whenever |G| > f(m,n) and this function can be taken to be polynomial if G is not soluble. We give an upper bound in terms of m and n for the solubility length of G, if G is soluble.

A Finite Group

Let G denote a finite group with a fixed-point-free automorphism of prime order p. Then it is known (see [3] and [8]) that G is nilpotent of class bounded by an integer k(p). From this it follows that the length of the derived series of G is also bounded. Let l(p) denote the least upper bound of the length of the derived series of a group with a fixed-point-free automorphism of order p. The results to be proved here may now be stated: Theorem 1. Let G denote a soluble group of finite order and A an abelian group of automorphisms of G. Suppose that (a) ∣G∣ is relatively prime to ∣A∣; (b) GAis nilpotent and normal inGω, for all ω ∈ A#; (c) the Sylow 2-subgroup of G is abelian; and (d) if q is a prime number andqk+ 1 divides the exponent of A for some integer k then the Sylow q-subgroup of G is abelian.

Equivalent Conditions

The theory of generalized Frattini subgroups of a finite group is continued in this paper. Several equivalent conditions are given for a proper normal subgroup H of a finite group G to be a generalized Frattini subgroup of G. One such condition on H is that K is nilpotent for each normal subgroup K of G such that K/H is nilpotent. From this result, it follows that the weakly hyper-central normal subgroups of a finite non-nilpotent group G are generalized Frattini subgroups of G.Let H be a generalized Frattini subgroup of G and let K be a subnormal subgroup of G which properly contains H. Then H is a generalized Frattini subgroup of K.Let ϕ(G) be the Frattini subgroup of G. Suppose that G/ϕ(G) is nonnilpotent, but every proper subgroup of G/ϕ(G) is nilpotent. Then ϕ(G) is the unique maximal generalized Frattini subgroup of G.

We consider factorizations of a finite group [Formula: see text] into conjugate subgroups, [Formula: see text] for [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is nilpotent or solvable. We derive an upper bound on the minimal length of a solvable conjugate factorization of a general finite group which, for a large class of groups, is linear in the non-solvable length of [Formula: see text]. We also show that every solvable group [Formula: see text] is a product of at most [Formula: see text] conjugates of a Carter subgroup [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is a positive real constant. Finally, using these results we obtain an upper bound on the minimal length of a nilpotent conjugate factorization of a general finite group.

Throughout the paper we consider only finite groups.J. C. Beidleman and H. Smith [3] have proposed the following question: “If G is a group and Ha subnormal subgroup of G containing Φ(G), the Frattini subgroup of G, such that H/Φ(G)is supersoluble, is H necessarily supersoluble? “In this paper, we give not only an affirmative answer to this question but also we see that the above result still holds if supersoluble is replaced by any saturated formation containing the class of all nilpotent groups.

AbstractA finite group is called a CH-group if for every x,y∈G∖Z(G), xy=yx implies that $\|\cent Gx\| = \|\cent Gy\|$. Applying results of Schmidt [‘Zentralisatorverbände endlicher Gruppen’, Rend. Sem. Mat. Univ. Padova44 (1970), 97–131] and Rebmann [‘F-Gruppen’, Arch. Math. 22 (1971), 225–230] concerning CA-groups and F-groups, the structure of CH-groups is determined, up to that of CH-groups of prime-power order. Upper bounds are found for the derived length of nilpotent and solvable CH-groups.

It is well known that the Frattini subgroups of any finite groups are nilpotent. If a finite group is not nilpotent, it is not the Frattini subgroup of a finite group. In this paper, we mainly discuss what kind of finite nilpotent groups cannot be the Frattini subgroup of some finite groups and give some results. Moreover, we generalize Hobby’s Theorem.

For a finite group [Formula: see text], let [Formula: see text] be the maximum size of a set of pairwise noncommuting elements in [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we give an upper bound of [Formula: see text] for an arbitrary nilpotent group [Formula: see text]. As an application of this result, we give a partial answer to Question 2.8 of [A. R. Ashrafi, On finite groups with a given number of centralizers, Algebra Colloq. 7(2) (2000) 139–146]. Also we compute [Formula: see text] when [Formula: see text] is a Frobenius group. Finally we describe structural properties of all groups [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text].

In the work of Beidleman and Smith [On Frattini-like subgroups, Glasgow Math. J. 35 (1993) 95–98], the following question was raised: “If [Formula: see text] is a subnormal subgroup of a finite group [Formula: see text] containing [Formula: see text], then whether the supersolvability of [Formula: see text] follows the supersolvability of [Formula: see text]”. This problem was considered in works of Selkin [Maximal Subgroups in the Theory of Classes of Finite Groups (Belaruskaya, Navuka, 1997)], Skiba [On the intersection of all maximal [Formula: see text]-subgroups of a finite group, Prob. Phys. Math. Tech. 3(4) (2010) 56–62], Ballester-Bolinches [On [Formula: see text]-subnormal subgroups and Frattini-like subgroups of a finite group, Glasgow Math. J. 36 (1994) 241–247] and many other authors (see monograph [Maximal Subgroups in the Theory of Classes of Finite Groups (Belaruskaya, Navuka, 1997)]). In this paper, we give the answer to the more general question: “Let [Formula: see text] be a local formation. If [Formula: see text] is a subnormal subgroup of a group [Formula: see text], then in what case [Formula: see text] will follow from [Formula: see text]”.

The Frattini subgroup φ(G) of a group G is the intersection of G and all its maximal subgroups. The following results for finite groups are well known:THEOREM A0. If G is a finite group, then the following three conditions are equivalent:(i) G is nilpotent,(ii) G/φ(G) is nilpotent,(iii) φ(G) ≥ G′.
