For each m≥1, u_{m}(G) is defined to be the intersection of the normalizers of all the subnormal subgroups of defect at most m in G. An ascending chain of subgroups u_{m,i}(G) is defined by setting u_{m,i}(G)/u_{m,i−1}(G)=u_{m}(G/u_{m,i−1}(G)). If u_{m,n}(G)=G, for some integer n, the m-Wielandt length of G is the minimal of such n.In [3], Bryce examined the structure of a finite soluble group with given m-Wielandt length, in terms of its polynilpotent structure. In this paper we extend his results to infinite soluble groups.1991 Mathematics Subject Classification. 20E15, 20F22.

The structure and embedding of subgroups permuting with the system normalizers of a finite soluble group are studied in the paper. It is also proved that the class of all finite soluble groups in which every subnormal subgroup permutes with the Sylow subgroups is properly contained in the class of all soluble groups whose subnormal subgroups permute with the system normalizers while this latter is properly contained in the class of all supersoluble groups.

Let G = H0 > H1 > … > Hr = 1 and G = K0 > K1 > … > Kr =1 be two chief series of the finite soluble group G. Suppose Mi complements Hi/Hi+1. Then Mi also complements precisely one factor Kj/Kj+1, of the second series, and this Kj/Kj+1 is G-isomorphic to Hi/Hi+1. It is shown that complements Mi can be chosen for the complemented factors Hi/Hi+1 of the first series in such a way that distinct Mi complement distinct factors of the second series, thus establishing a one-to-one correspondence between the complemented factors of the two series. It is also shown that there is a one-to-one correspondence between the factors of the two series (but not in general constructible in the above manner), such that corresponding factors are G-isomorphic and have the same number of complements.

AbstractThe Wielandt subgroup of a group $G$, denoted by ${\it\omega}(G)$, is the intersection of the normalisers of all subnormal subgroups of $G$. The terms of the Wielandt series of $G$ are defined, inductively, by putting ${\it\omega}_{0}(G)=1$ and ${\it\omega}_{i+1}(G)/{\it\omega}_{i}(G)={\it\omega}(G/{\it\omega}_{i}(G))$. In this paper, we investigate the relations between the$p$-length of a $p$-soluble finite group and the Wielandt series of its Sylow $p$-subgroups. Some recent results are improved.

Let G be a finite soluble group with Fitting subgroup F(G). The Fitting series of G is defined, as usual, by F0(G) = 1 and Fi(G)/Fi−1(G) = F(G/Fi−1(G)) for i ≥ 1, and the Fitting height h = h(G) of G is the least integer such that Fn(G) = G. Suppose now that a finite soluble group A acts on G. Let k be the composition length of A, that is, the number of prime divisors (counting multiplicities) of |A|. There is a certain amount of evidence in favour of theCONJECTURE. |G:Fk(G)| is bounded by a number depending only on |A| and |CG(A)|.

AbstractWe give a general method for constructing subgroups which either cover or avoid each chief factor of the finite soluble group G. A strongly pronorrnal subgroup V, a prefrattini subgroup W, an -normalizer D and intersections and products of V, W, and D axe all constructable. The constructable subgroups can be characterized by their cover-avoidance property and a permutability condition as in the results of J. D. Gillam [4] for prefrattini subgroups and -normalizers.

The Carter subgroups of a finite soluble group may be characterised either as theself-normalising nilpotent subgroups or as the nilpotent projectors. Subgroups with properties analogous to both of these have been considered by Newell (2, 3) in the class of -groups. The results obtained are necessarily less satisfactory than in the finite case, the subgroups either being almost self-normalising (i.e. having finite index in their normaliser) or having an almost-covering property. Also the subgroups are not necessarily conjugate but lie in finitely many conjugacy classes.

In a finite soluble group G, the Fitting (or nilpotency) length h(G) can be considered as a measure for how strongly G deviates from being nilpotent. As another measure for this, the number v(G) of conjugacy classes of the maximal nilpotent subgroups of G may be taken. It is shown that there exists an integer-valued function f on the set of positive integers such that h(G) ≦ f(v(G)) for all finite (soluble) groups of odd order. Moreover, if all prime divisors of the order of G are greater than v(G)(v(G) - l)/2, then h(G) ≦3. The bound f(v(G)) is just of qualitative nature and by far not best possible. For v(G) = 2, h(G) = 3, some statements are made about the structure of G.

Introduction. Hall ((3), (4)) introduced the concept of a Sylow system and its normalizer into the theory of finite soluble groups. In (4) he showed that system normalizers may be characterized as those subgroups D of G minimal subject to the existence of a chain of subgroups from D up to G in which each subgroup is maximal and non-normal in the next; he also showed that a system normalizer covers all the central chief factors and avoids all the eccentric chief factors of G (for definitions of covering and avoidance, and an account of their elementary properties), the reader is referred to Taunt ((5)). This note arises out of an investigation into the question to what extent this covering/ avoidance property characterizes system normalizers; it provides a partial answer by means of two elementary counter-examples given in section 3 which seem to indicate that the property ceases to characterize system normalizers as soon as the ‘non-commutativity’ of the group is increased beyond a certain threshold. For the sake of completeness we include proofs in Theorems 1 and 2 of generalizations of two known results communicated to me by Dr Taunt and which as far as we know have not been published elsewhere. Theorem 1 shows the covering/avoidance property to be characteristic for the class of soluble groups with self-normalizing system normalizers introduced by Carter in (1), while Theorem 2 shows the same is true for A -groups (soluble groups with Abelian Sylow subgroups investigated by Taunt in (5)).

Various characteristic conjugacy classes of subgroups having covering/avoidance properties with respect to chief factors have recently played a major role in the study of finite soluble groups. Apart from the subgroups which are now called Hall subgroups, P. Hall [7] also considered the system normalizers of a finite soluble group and showed that these form a characteristic conjugacy class, cover the central chief factors and avoid the rest. The system normalizers were later shown by Carter and Hawkes [1] to be the simplest example of a wealth of characteristic conjugacy classes of subgroups of finite soluble groups which arise naturally as a consequence of the theory of formations.

Throughout this paper a “group” will mean a “finite soluble group”.
