For a soluble finite group [Formula: see text] and a prime [Formula: see text] we let [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text]. We obtain upper bounds for the rank, the nilpotent length, the derived length, and the [Formula: see text]-length of a finite soluble group [Formula: see text] in terms of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text].

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.

Suppose that a finite soluble group G is the product AB of subgroups A and B. Our question is the following: what conclusions can be made about G if A and B are suitably restricted? First we shall prove that the p–length of G is restricted by the derived lengths of the Sylow p–subgroups of A and B, if A and B are p–closed and p′-closed. Moreover, if in such a group the Sylow p–subgroups of A and B are modular, the p–length of G is at most 1. Next we obtain a general estimate for the derived length of the group G = AB of odd order in terms of the derived lengths of A and B. Furthermore it will be possible to bound the nilpotent length of G and also the p–length of G in terms of other invariants of special subgroups of G.

We prove here that the (saturated) formation generated by a finite soluble group has only finitely many (saturated) subformations. This answers a question asked by Professor W. Gaschütz. Some partial results are also given in the case of a formation generated by an arbitrary finite group.

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.

Gagola and Lewis proved that a finite group [Formula: see text] is nilpotent if and only if [Formula: see text] divides [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text] for all irreducible characters [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we prove that a finite soluble group [Formula: see text] is nilpotent if and only if [Formula: see text] divides [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text] for all irreducible monomial characters [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text].

Let G be a finite group. We let [Formula: see text] and σ (G) denote the number of maximal subgroups of G and the least positive integer n such that G is written as the union of n proper subgroups, respectively. In this paper, we determine the structure of G/ Φ (G) when G is a finite soluble group with [Formula: see text].

AbstractIn 1980, McCaughan and Stonehewer showed that a finite soluble group in which every subnormal subgroup has defect at most two has derived length at most nine and Fitting length at most five, and gave an example of derived length five and Fitting length four. In 1984 Casolo showed that derived length five and Fitting length four are best possible bounds.In this paper we show that for groups of odd order the bounds can be improved. A group of odd order with every subnormal subgroup of defect at most two has derived and Fitting length at most three, and these bounds are best possible.

In this paper, we investigate a class of 2-generator 2-relator groups G(n) related to the Fibonacci groups F(2,n), each of the groups in this new class also being defined by a single parameter n, though here n can take negative, as well as positive, values. If n is odd, we show that G(n) is a finite soluble group of derived length 2 (if n is coprime to 3) or 3 (otherwise), and order |2n(n + 2)gnf(n, 3)|, where fn is the Fibonacci number defined by f0=0,f1=1,fn+2=fn+fn+1 and gn is the Lucas number defined by g0 = 2, g1 = 1, gn+2 = gn + gn+1 for n≧0. On the other hand, if n is even then, with three exceptions, namely the cases n = 2,4 or –4, G(n) is infinite; the groups G(2), G(4) and G(–4) have orders 16, 240 and 80 respectively.

AbstractIn this paper we deal with locally graded groups whose subgroups are either subnormal or soluble of bounded derived length, say d. In particular, we prove that every locally (soluble-by-finite) group with this property is either soluble or an extension of a soluble group of derived length at most d by a finite group, which fits between a minimal simple group and its automorphism group. We also classify all the finite non-abelian simple groups whose proper subgroups are metabelian.

Abstract We show that if w is a multilinear commutator word and G a finite group in which every metanilpotent subgroup generated by w-values is of rank at most r, then the rank of the verbal subgroup $w(G)$ is bounded in terms of r and w only. In the case where G is soluble, we obtain a better result: if G is a finite soluble group in which every nilpotent subgroup generated by w-values is of rank at most r, then the rank of $w(G)$ is at most $r+1$ .
