Irreducibilty of alternating and symmetric squares.
A subgroup H of a group G is said to permute with a subgroup K of G if HK is a subgroup of G. H is said to be permutable (resp. S-permutable) if it permutes with all the subgroups (resp. Sylow subgroups) of G. Finite groups in which permutability (resp. S-permutability) is a transitive relation are called PT-groups (resp. PST-groups). PT-, PST- and T-groups, or groups in which normality is transitive, have been extensively studied and characterised. Kaplan [Kaplan G., On T-groups, supersolvable...
A subgroup of a group is nearly maximal if the index is infinite but every subgroup of properly containing has finite index, and the group is called nearly if all its subgroups of infinite index are intersections of nearly maximal subgroups. It is proved that an infinite (generalized) soluble group is nearly if and only if it is either cyclic or dihedral.
It is proved that a soluble residually finite minimax group is finite-by-nilpotent if and only if it has only finitely many maximal subgroups which are not normal.
Let be a saturated formation containing the class of supersolvable groups and let be a finite group. The following theorems are presented: (1) if and only if there is a normal subgroup such that and every maximal subgroup of all Sylow subgroups of is either -normal or -quasinormally embedded in . (2) if and only if there is a normal subgroup such that and every maximal subgroup of all Sylow subgroups of , the generalized Fitting subgroup of , is either -normal or -quasinormally...
Let G be some metabelian 2-group satisfying the condition G/G’ ≃ ℤ/2ℤ × ℤ/2ℤ × ℤ/2ℤ. In this paper, we construct all the subgroups of G of index 2 or 4, we give the abelianization types of these subgroups and we compute the kernel of the transfer map. Then we apply these results to study the capitulation problem for the 2-ideal classes of some fields k satisfying the condition , where is the second Hilbert 2-class field of k.
