Abstract

Let GG be a finite solvable group and HH be a subgroup of Aut(G)Aut(G). Suppose that there exists an HH-invariant Carter subgroup FF of GG such that the semidirect product FHFH is a Frobenius group with kernel FF. We prove that the terms of the Fitting series of CG(H)C_{G}(H) are obtained as the intersection of CG(H)C_{G}(H) with the corresponding terms of the Fitting series of GG, and the Fitting height of GG may exceed the Fitting height of CG(H)C_{G}(H) by at most one. As a corollary it is shown that for any set of primes π\pi, the terms of the π\pi-series of CG(H)C_{G}(H) is obtained as the intersection of CG(H)C_{G}(H) with the corresponding terms of the π\pi-series of GG, and the π\pi-length of GG may exceed the π\pi-length of CG(H)C_{G}(H) by at most one. They generalize the main results of \cite{Khu}.
