Interval enforceable properties of finite groups

Group Theory 2014-04-08 v4

Abstract

We propose a classification of group properties according to whether they can be deduced from the assumption that a group's subgroup lattice contains an interval isomorphic to some lattice. We are able to classify a few group properties as being "interval enforceable" in this sense, and we establish that other properties satisfy a weaker notion of "core-free interval enforceable." We also show that if there exists a group property and its negation that are both core-free interval enforceable, this would settle an important open question in universal algebra.
