Let $G$ be a finite soluble group and $h(G)$ its Fitting length. The aim of this paper is to give certain upper bounds for $h(G)$ as functions of the Fitting length of at least three Hall subgroups of $G$ which factorize $G$ in a particular…

The nonsoluble length $\lambda (G)$ of a finite group $G$ is defined as the number of nonsoluble factors in a shortest normal series each of whose factors either is soluble or is a direct product of nonabelian simple groups. The generalized…

The generalised Fitting subgroup of a finite group is the group generated by all subnormal subgroups that are either nilpotent or quasisimple. The importance of this subgroup in finite group theory stems from the fact that it always…

In this paper we are concerned with finite soluble groups $G$ admitting a factorisation $G=AB$, with $A$ and $B$ proper subgroups having coprime order. We are interested in bounding the Fitting height of $G$ in terms of some…

The generalized Fitting height of a finite group $G$ is the least number $h=h^*(G)$ such that $F^*_h(G)=G$, where the $F^*_i(G)$ is the generalized Fitting series: $F^*_1(G)=F^*(G)$ and $F^*_{i+1}(G)$ is the inverse image of…

We determine when an arithmetic subgroup of a reductive group defined over a global function field is of type FP_\infty by comparing its large-scale geometry to the large-scale geometry of lattices in real semisimple Lie groups.

For a finite group $G$ and its maximal subgroup $M$ we proved that the generalized Fitting height of $M$ can't be less by 2 than the generalized Fitting height of $G$ and the non-$p$-soluble length of $M$ can't be less by 1 than the…

The generalized Fitting height $h^*(G)$ of a finite group $G$ is the least number $h$ such that $\mathrm{F}_h^* (G) = G$, where $\mathrm{F}_{(0)}^* (G) = 1$, and $\mathrm{F}_{(i+1)}^*(G)$ is the inverse image of the generalized Fitting…

In this paper we consider the Fitting subgroup $F(G)$ of a finite group $G$ and its generalizations: the quasinilpotent radical $F^*(G)$ and the generalized Fitting subgroup $\tilde{F}(G)$ defined by $\tilde{F}(G)\supseteq \Phi(G)$ and…

A B-group is a group such that all its minimal generating sets (with respect to inclusion) have the same size. We prove that the class of finite B-groups is closed under taking quotients and that every finite B-group is solvable. Via a…

We prove two conjectures of E. Khukhro and P. Shumyatsky concerning the Fitting height and insoluble length of finite groups. As a by-product of our methods, we also prove a generalization of a result of Flavell, which itself generalizes…

We investigate correspondence functors, namely the functors from the category of finite sets and correspondences to the category of $k$-modules, where $k$ is a commutative ring.They have various specific properties which do not hold for…

The M\"obius function of the subgroup lattice of a finite group has been introduced by Hall and applied to investigate several questions. In this paper, we consider the M\"obius function defined on an order ideal related to the lattice of…

Let $R$ be a subset of a group $G$. We call a subgroup $H$ of $G$ the $R$-conjugate-permutable subgroup of $G$, if $HH^{x}=H^{x}H$ for all $x\in R$. This concept is a generalization of conjugate-permutable subgroups introduced by T. Foguel.…

Let $g$ be an element of a finite group $G$ and let $R_{n}(g)$ be the subgroup generated by all the right Engel values $[g,{}_{n}x]$ over $x\in G$. In the case when $G$ is soluble we prove that if, for some $n$, the Fitting height of…

We introduce a general unifying framework for the investigation of pointlike sets. The pointlike functors are considered as distinguished elements of a certain lattice of subfunctors of the power semigroup functor; in particular, we exhibit…

This paper explores the interplay between category theory, topology, and the algebraic theory of finite groups. Our analysis unfolds in three stages. First, we establish the foundational universe of our objects: the complete and cocomplete…

It is proved that all finitely generated subgroups of generalized free product of two groups are finitely separable provided that free factors have this property and amalgamated subgroups are normal in corresponding factors and satisfy the…

This paper extends the notion of $B$-group to a relative context. For a finite group $K$ and a field $\mathbb{F}$ of characteristic 0, the lattice of ideals of the Green biset functor $\mathbb{F}B_K$ obtained by shifting the Burnside…

Universality has been an important concept in computable structure theory. A class $\mathcal{C}$ of structures is universal if, informally, for any structure, of any kind, there is a structure in $\mathcal{C}$ with the same…
