The Fitting Subgroup of a Stable Group

The generalised Fitting subgroup of a profinite group

The generalised Fitting subgroup of a finite group is the group generated by all subnormal subgroups that are either nilpotent or quasisimple. The importance of this subgroup in finite group theory stems from the fact that it always contains its own centraliser, so that any finite group is an abelian extension of a group of automorphisms of its generalised Fitting subgroup. We define a class of...

On Marginal Automorphisms of a Group Fixing the Certain Subgroup

Let W be a variety of groups defined by a set W of laws and G be a finite p-group in W. The automorphism α of a group G is said to bea marginal automorphism (with respect to W), if for all x ∈ G, x−1α(x) ∈ W∗(G), where W∗(G) is the marginal subgroup of G. Let M,N be two normalsubgroups of G. By AutM(G), we mean the subgroup of Aut(G) consistingof all automorphisms which centralize G/M. AutN(G) ...

Solvable $L$-subgroup of an $L$-group

In this paper, we study the notion of solvable $L$-subgroup of an $L$-group and provide its level subset characterization and this justifies the suitability of this extension. Throughout this work, we have used normality of an $L$-subgroup of an $L$-group in the sense of Wu rather than Liu.

On the Fischer-Clifford matrices of a maximal subgroup of the Lyons group Ly

The non-split extension group $overline{G} = 5^3{^.}L(3,5)$ is a subgroup of order 46500000 and of index 1113229656 in Ly. The group $overline{G}$ in turn has L(3,5) and $5^2{:}2.A_5$ as inertia factors. The group $5^2{:}2.A_5$ is of order 3 000 and is of index 124 in L(3,5). The aim of this paper is to compute the Fischer-Clifford matrices of $overline{G}$, which together with associated parti...
