Abstract

Let π\pi be a set of primes. By H.Wielandt definition, {\it Sylow π\pi-theorem} holds for a finite group GG if all maximal π\pi-subgroups of GG are conjugate. In the paper, the following statement is proven. Assume that π\pi is a union of disjoint subsets σ\sigma and τ\tau and a finite group GG possesses a π\pi-Hall subgroup which is a direct product of a σ\sigma-subgroup and a τ\tau-subgroup. Furthermore, assume that both the Sylow σ\sigma-theorem and τ\tau-theorem hold for GG. Then the Sylow π\pi-theorem holds for GG. This result confirms a conjecture posed by H.\,Wielandt in~1959.
