    Let GG be a group. A subgroup HH of GG is said to be quasinormal if HK=KHHK = KH for every subgroup KK of GG, and GG is called quasi-Hamiltonian if all its subgroups are quasinormal. The structure of quasi-Hamiltonian groups has been described by {\it K. Iwasawa} [in J. Fac. Sci., Univ. Tokyo, Sect. I 4, 171-199 (1941; Zbl 0061.025) and Jap. J. Math. 18, 709-728 (1943; Zbl 0061.025)]. If GG is a group, let Q(G)Q(G) denote the subgroup generated by all subgroups of GG which are not quasinormal. Then GG is quasi-Hamiltonian if and only if Q(G)=1Q(G) = 1, and it is easy to show that Q(G)Q(G) is generated by all cyclic non-quasinormal subgroups of GG.\par The author studies the class X\bold X of all groups GG for which Q(G)Q(G) is a proper subgroup. The corresponding problem for the subgroup generated by all non-normal subgroups was considered by {\it D. Cappitt} [J. Algebra 17, 310-316 (1971; Zbl 0232.20067)]. Clearly every X\bold X-group is generated by cyclic quasinormal subgroups, and in particular it is locally nilpotent. The author proves that non-periodic X\bold X-groups are quasi-Hamiltonian. The investigation of periodic X\bold X-groups can be reduced to the case of a pp-group (pp prime), and the description of pp-groups in the class X\bold X is obtained. In particular, it is shown that a pp-group of infinite exponent GG is in the class X\bold X if and only if the subgroup generated by all non-normal subgroups of GG is properly contained in GG. Finally, the author proves that if GG is an X\bold X-group whose Sylow 2-subgroup is quasi-Hamiltonian, then GG is metabelian. [F.de Giovanni (Napoli)

    A group GG is said to be an M\sp*-group if all subgroups of GG are quasinormal and GG is quaternionfree. Using Iwasawa's characterization of M\sp*-groups the author gives an elegant and unified proof of the following theorem: If GG is an M\sp*-group, then there exists an abelian group AA such that the lattices of subgroups of AA and GG are isomorphic.

    On the Poset of Conjugacy Classes of Subgroups of Finite p-Groups

    No full text
    For a finite group GG, let calC(G){cal C}(G) denote the poset of conjugacy classes [S][S] of subgroups SS of GG. The ordering is [S1]leq[S2][S_1]leq[S_2] iff S1leqS2gS_1leq S_2^g for some ginGgin G. Let HH be a finite group such that calC(G){cal C}(G) and calC(H){cal C}(H) are order-isomorphic. Let GG is a pp-group. It is known [{it R. Brandl}, Commun. Algebra 20, No. 10, 3043-3054 (1992; Zbl 0767.20008)] that HH is a pp-group. Moreover, if GG is abelian or metacyclic, then GcongHGcong H [see {it L. Verardi} and the reviewer, Glasg. J. Math. 35, No. 3, 339-344 (1993; Zbl 0846.20020)].par Let arphicoloncalC(G)ocalC(G)arphicolon{cal C}(G) o{cal C}(G) be an order-isomorphism. It is shown in this interesting paper that arphiarphi maps (conjugacy classes of) normal subgroups of GG onto normal subgroups of HH. This answers a question of L. Verardi and the reviewer. Indeed, a stronger result is proved concerning pp-groups GG with a pp-group UU of operators. The specialization U=1U=1 yields, for example, the known result that a projectivity between two pp-groups maps some principal series of GG onto a principal series of HH. Another consequence of the main theorem is that the classes of pp-groups of maximal nilpotency class, and of powerful pp-groups are determined by their posets of subgroups. Moreover, if GG is a modular pp-group, then GcongHGcong H.par Generally speaking, the paper supports the philosophy that posets of subgroups, although very much smaller, behave much better than the lattices of all subgroups, but seem to contain enough information to recover many properties of the group under consideration.

    Der Verf. studiert den Durchschnitt aller maximalen modularen Teilverbände des Untergruppenverbandes {\goth L}(G) einer Gruppe GG und nennt ihn {\goth Z}(G), da er genau die von Zacher bereits 1955 studierten Untergruppen enthält, die mit jedem modularen Teilverband einen modularen Teilverband von {\goth L}(G) erzeugen. Natürlich gehören 1 und GG zu {\goth Z}(G), und der Verf. zeigt, dass eine der folgenden drei Aussagen gilt, wenn GG eine endliche pp-Gruppe mit p>2p>2 und M\in{\goth Z}(G) mit 1<M<G1<M<G ist:\par (1) {\goth L}(G) ist modular.\par (2) MxpxHM\le\langle x^p\mid x\in H\rangle für jedes HGH\le G mit {\goth L}(H) nicht modular.\par (3) MM enthält jede nicht permutable Untergruppe von GG.\par Der Verf. gibt Beispiele für pp-Gruppen mit Elementen von {\goth Z}(G), die Eigenschaft (2) bzw. (3) haben. Ob aber jedes solche MM zu {\goth Z}(G) gehört, bleibt offen. [R.Schmidt (Kiel)

    In 1951 S. Sato showed that the lattice of subgroups of a modular group with elements of infinite order is isomorphic to the one of a convenient abelian group. Recently in the last part of Sato's work some inexactitudes were found which could question the validity of the result. \par In this paper a new proof of that theorem is provided. Included are also two results on modular groups with elements of infinite order. Namely that any such group can be embedded in a modular group whose torsion- subgroup is divisible and that in case the torsion-subgroup is divisible a modular group splits into the semidirect product of its torsion- subgroup by a cyclic, or locally cyclic, group

    Groups in which every subgroup is f-subnormal

    A subgroup HH of a group GG is called ff-subnormal in GG, if there is a finite sequence H=H0H1Hk=GH=H_0\le H_1\le\cdots\le H_k=G such that the predecessor is normal in the following term whenever the index is infinite. It follows from results of Lennox and Stonehewer that finitely generated groups of the title are finite-by-nilpotent. Two results for the general case as examples: GG is finite-by-solvable, every subgroup of G/D(G)G/D(G) is subnormal and D(G)D(G) is finite-by-nilpotent, where D(G)D(G) is generated by all nilpotent residuals of finitely generated subgroups. -- Further, the authors consider groups in which every subgroup is a subgroup of finite index of a subnormal subgroup.

    Groups with all subgroups ff-subnormal

    The authors continue their investigation of SS-groups, i.e. the groups GG, in which every subgroup HH is ff-subnormal (there exists an ff-series from HH to GG, that is a finite series H=H0H1Hn=GH=H_0\le H_1\le\cdots\le H_n=G such that Hi:Hi1|H_i:H_{i-1}| is finite or Hi1H_{i-1} is normal in HiH_i).\par The main results of the article are the following theorems: Theorem 1. A torsion SS-groups is an extension of a finite group by a group in which all subgroups are subnormal. Theorem 2. The primary components of the subgroup generated by the nilpotent residuals of the finitely generated subgroups of an SS-group GG are finite. [Igor Subbotin (Los Angeles)

    Normal subgroups in the subgroup lattices of finite pp-groups

    Given a finite pp-group GG we construct inductively a chief series only by lattice theoretical means. This improves a result of R. Schmidt that shows that any projectivity between finite pp groups GG and HH sends a chief series of GG into a chief series of HH

    A CHARACTERIZATION OF HN: ADDENDUM

    In the paper mentioned in the title [{\it C. Franchi, M. Mainardis} and {\it R. Solomon}, J. Group Theory 11, No. 3, 357-369 (2008; Zbl 1151.20014)] the Harada-Norton sporadic simple group was characterized as a group of bicharacteristic {2,5}\{2,5\}. In this note we extend that result to bicharacteristic {2,p}\{2,p\} for any prime pp greater than 33. Our result follows from the fact that, for such primes, a pp-local configuration of the type found in the Harada-Norton group for p=5p=5 can appear in a finite group only when pp is equal to 33 or 55
