Let a group G contain a Carter subgroup of odd order. It is shown that every composition factor of G either is Abelian or is isomorphic to L 2 (3 2n+1 ), n ≥ 1. Moreover, if 3 does not divide the order of a Carter subgroup, then G solvable.
Denote by {\nu_{p}(G)} the number of Sylow p-subgroups of G. It is not
difficult to see that {\nu_{p}(H)\leqslant\nu_{p}(G)} for {H\leqslant G}, however
{\nu_{p}(H)} does not divide {\nu_{p}(G)} in general. In this paper we reduce
the question whether {\nu_{p}(H)} divides {\nu_{p}(G)} for every {H\leqslant G} to
almost simple groups. This result substantially generalizes the previous
result by G. Navarro and also provides an alternative proof of Navarro’s
theorem.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
