Abstract

top
A subgroup M of a group G is nearly maximal if the index | G : M | is infinite but every subgroup of G properly containing M has finite index, and the group G is called nearly I M if all its subgroups of infinite index are intersections of nearly maximal subgroups. It is proved that an infinite (generalized) soluble group is nearly I M if and only if it is either cyclic or dihedral.
