AbstractThe object of this work is to find classes of groups which possess only countably many maximal subgroups. Modules with countably many maximal submodules and group rings having countably many maximal right ideals are also investigated. Examples of soluble groups with uncountably many maximal subgroups are described.

We introduce a definition of a Schunck class of periodic abelian-by-finite soluble groups using major subgroups in place of the maximal subgroups used in Finite groups. This allows us to develop the theory as in the finite case proving the existence and conjugacy of projectors. Saturated formations are examples of Schunck classes and we are also able to obtain an infinite version of Gaschütz Ω-subgroups.

AbstractA cover for a group is a finite set of subgroups whose union is the whole group. A cover is minimal if its cardinality is minimal. Minimal covers of finite soluble groups are categorised; in particular all but at most one of their members are maximal subgroups. A characterisation is given of groups with minimal covers consisting of abelian subgroups.

We consider a DG-module A over a Dedekind domain D. Let G be a group having infinite section p-rank (or infinite 0-rank) such that CG(A) = 1. It is known that if A is not an artinian D-module then for every proper subgroup H, the quotient A/CA(H) is an artinian D-module for every proper subgroup H of infinite section p-rank (or infinite 0-rank respectively). In this paper, it is proved that if G is a locally soluble group, then G is soluble. Some properties of soluble groups of this type are also obtained.

AbstractLetGbe a finite group with an abelian normal subgroupN. When doesNhave a unique conjugacy class of complements inG? We consider this question with a focus on properties of maximal subgroups. As corollaries we obtain Theorems 1.6 and 1.7 which are closely related to a result by Parker and Rowley on supplements of a nilpotent normal subgroup [3, Theorem 1]. Furthermore, we consider families of maximal subgroups ofGclosed under conjugation whose intersection equals{\Phi(G)}. In particular, we characterize the soluble groups having a unique minimal family with this property (Theorem 2.3, Remark 2.4). In the case when{\Phi(G)=1}, these are exactly the soluble groups in which each abelian normal subgroup has a unique conjugacy class of complements.
