The theory of saturated fusion systems resembles in many parts the theory of finite groups. However, some concepts from finite group theory are difficult to translate to fusion systems. For example, products of normal subsystems with other…

Saturated fusion systems are categories modeling properties of conjugacy of p-subgroups in finite groups. It was shown by Chermak that they correspond nicely to group-like structures called localities. In this paper we start to explore how…

Linking systems were introduced to provide algebraic models for $p$-completed classifying spaces of fusion systems. Every linking system over a saturated fusion system $\mathcal{F}$ corresponds to a group-like structure called a locality.…

Every saturated fusion system corresponds to a group-like structure called a regular locality. In this paper we study (suitably defined) normalizers and centralizers of partial subnormal subgroups of regular localities. This leads to a…

Let $\mathcal F$ be a saturated fusion system on a finite $p$-group $S$, and let $P$ be a strongly $\mathcal F$-closed subgroup of $S$. We define the concept ``$\mathcal F$-essential subgroups with respect to $P$" which are some proper…

We determine all reduced saturated fusion systems supported on a finite $p$-group of nilpotency class two. As a consequence, we obtain a new proof of Gilman & Gorenstein's classification of finite simple groups with class two Sylow…

In this article we prove that for any saturated fusion system, that the (unique) smallest weakly normal subsystem of it on a given strongly closed subgroup is actually normal. This has a variety of corollaries, such as the statement that…

In this paper, important concepts from finite group theory are translated to localities, in particular to linking localities. Here localities are group-like structures associated to fusion systems which were introduced by Chermak. Linking…

We compare four different types of realizability for saturated fusion systems over discrete $p$-toral groups. For example, when $G$ is a locally finite group all of whose $p$-subgroups are artinian (hence discrete $p$-toral), we show that…

We show that the automorphism group of a linking system associated to a saturated fusion system $\mathcal{F}$ depends only on $\mathcal{F}$ as long as the object set of the linking system is $\mathrm{Aut}(\mathcal{F})$-invariant. This was…

We describe the structure of finite groups with $\mathfrak{F}$-subnormal or self-normalizing primary cyclic subgroups when $\mathfrak{F}$ is a subgroup-closed saturate superradical formation containing all nilpotent groups. We prove that…

Let $p$ be a prime, $S$ be a $p$-group and $\mathcal{F}$ be a saturated fusion system over $S$. Then $\mathcal{F}$ is said to be supersolvable, if there exists a series of $S$, namely $1 = S_0 \leq S_1 \leq \cdots \leq S_n = S$, such that…

Let G be group; a finite p-subgroup S of G is a Sylow p-subgroup if every finite p-subgroup of G is conjugate to a subgroup of S. In this paper, we examine the relations between the fusion system over S which is given by conjugation in G…

A saturated fusion system over a finite $p$-group $S$ is a category whose objects are the subgroups of $S$ and whose morphisms are injective homomorphisms between the subgroups satisfying certain axioms. A fusion system over $S$ is realized…

We show that the product of two partial normal subgroups of a locality (in the sense of Chermak) is again a partial normal subgroup. This generalizes a theorem of Chermak and fits into the context of building a local theory of localities.

For a prime number $p$, a finite $p$-group of order $p^n$ has maximal class if it has nilpotency class $n-1$. Here we examine saturated fusion systems on maximal class $p$-groups and, in particular, we describe all the reduFor a prime…

A p-local finite group consists of a finite p-group S, together with a pair of categories which encode ``conjugacy'' relations among subgroups of S, and which are modelled on the fusion in a Sylow p-subgroup of a finite group. It contains…

We prove, when $S$ is a $2$-group of order at most $2^9$, that each reduced fusion system over $S$ is the fusion system of a finite simple group and is tame. It then follows that each saturated fusion system over a $2$-group of order at…

Let $\pi$ be a set of primes. By H.Wielandt definition, {\it Sylow $\pi$-theorem} holds for a finite group $G$ if all maximal $\pi$-subgroups of $G$ are conjugate. In the paper, the following statement is proven. Assume that $\pi$ is a…

In this article, we compare two different notions of partially defined group strutures, namely partial groups and pregroups, as introduced by Chermak and Stallings respectively. In particular we prove that the category of pregroups can be…
