Zelmanov， 他用上許多可解群的技巧來處理著名的Restricted Burnside Problem，並因此在1994年獲得菲爾茲獎。隨著可解群理論的成 熟，個別的群類如Fitting類、Schunk類，群系等亦得以發展。 在 1963 年，W.Gaschiitz 發表了 一篇文章名為 “Zur Theorie der endlichen aufbsbamn Gruppen”奠定了群系理論的基礎。隨後， H.Neumann, L.A. Shemetkov, A. Skiba等人亦運用了群系的技巧去 解決群論的問題。這對群系理論的發展有相當的貢獻。除此之外， 群系理論亦間接地影響無窮群、李代數的分類等發展。群系理論的方 法及其技巧，最近亦應用到一般代數方面。 在本論文中，我們會先介紹群系的基礎知識；另外，一些基本的 概念如上根，f超中心，^r-覆蓋子群及f正規化子等亦會討論。 在論文的後半部份，我們將討論局部群系及其應用。我們會利用 群系函數去構造群糸。基本的局部群糸的性質亦會討論。我們亦會應 用局部群系的技巧去研究Schmidt群的結構。例如，我們會證明某個 Schmidt群的Frattini子群相等於那個Schmidt群的超中心；以及一 個Schmidt群的N-上根的Frattini子群是那個N-上根的子群。最 後，我們將利用這些曾探討過的技巧來推廣有關P-冪零群的伊籐定 理（lto，s Theorem)。這是一個新的結果。 On Local Formations of Finite Groups 1 Abstract The theory of groups is one of the main branches in algebra with a long history and finite soluble groups form a remarkable subclass of the class of finite groups. In the past decade, many authors obtained significant results of soluble groups. For example, Efim Zelmanov has used some results in soluble groups to solve the famous Restricted Burnside Problem. Along with soluble groups, certain classes of finite groups, like Fitting class, Schunk class and formation, were also developed. The theory of formation was first introduced by "Zur Theorie der endlichen auflosbaren Gruppen" in 1963.

  • Preregular Maps Between Banach Lattices
    BULL. AUSTRAL. MATH. SOC. 46A40, 46M05 VOL. II (1974), 231-254. (46BI0, 46BI5) Preregular maps between Banach lattices David A. Birnbaum A continuous linear map from a Banach lattice E into a Banach lattice F is preregular if it is the difference of positive continuous linear maps from E into the bidual F" of F . This paper characterizes Banach lattices B with either of the following properties: (1) for any Banach lattice E , each map in L(E, B) is preregular; (2) for any Banach lattice F , each map in L{B, F) is preregular. It is shown that B satisfies (l) (respectively (2)) if and- only if B' satisfies (2) (respectively (l)). Several order properties of a Banach lattice satisfying (2) are discussed and it is shown that if B satisfies (2) and if B is also an atomic vector lattice then B is isomorphic as a Banach lattice to I (T) for some index set Y . 1. Introduction The following natural question arises in the theory of Banach lattices: Given Banach lattices E and F , is each map in the space L(E, F) of continuous linear maps from E into F the difference of positive (continuous) linear maps? It is known that if F is a C{X) for X an extremally disconnected, compact Hausdorff space X or if E is an A£-space and F has the monotone convergence property then the answer to Received 17 May 1971*. 231 Downloaded from https://www.cambridge.org/core.

  • On the Abnormal Structure of Finite Groups 3 2
    Rev. Mat. Iberoam., 1–13 c European Mathematical Society On the abnormal structure of finite groups Adolfo Ballester-Bolinches, John Cossey and Ram´on Esteban-Romero Abstract. We study finite groups in which every maximal subgroup is supersoluble or normal. Our results answer some questions arising from papers of Asaad and Rose. 1. Introduction and statement of results In this paper we will consider only finite groups. A classical result of Schmidt [17] shows that if every maximal subgroup of a group is nilpotent, then the group is soluble. Rose [16] considered the effects of replacing “maximal” by “non-normal maximal” in Schmidt’s result, and proved: Theorem 1. If every non-normal maximal subgroup of a group G is nilpotent, then G has a normal Sylow subgroup P such that G/P is nilpotent. It is clear that the hypothesis in the above theorem holds in every epimorphic image of G. Hence using induction on the order of G, the solubility of the group is a consequence of the following result proved by Baer in [4]: Theorem 2. Let G be a primitive group such that every core-free maximal subgroup is nilpotent. Then G is soluble. Among the published extensions of Schmidt’s result, one due to Huppert is of particular interest. He proved: Theorem 3 ([11, Satz 22]). If every maximal subgroup of a group G is supersoluble, then G is soluble. Rose [16] observed that imposing supersolubility only on non-normal maximal subgroups is not sufficient to guarantee solubility. He shows that in PGL2(7), every maximal subgroup except PSL2(7) is supersoluble.

  • Bochner's Subordionation and Fractional Caloric
    BOCHNER'S SUBORDIONATION AND FRACTIONAL CALORIC SMOOTHING IN BESOV AND TRIEBEL{LIZORKIN SPACES VICTORIYA KNOPOVA AND RENE´ L. SCHILLING Abstract. We use Bochner's subordination technique to obtain caloric smooth- ing estimates in Besov- and Triebel{Lizorkin spaces. Our new estimates extend known smoothing results for the Gauß–Weierstraß, Cauchy{Poisson and higher- order generalized Gauß–Weierstraß semigroups. Extensions to other function spaces (homogeneous, hybrid) and more general semigroups are sketched. 1. Introduction f Let (Wt )t≥0 be the f-subordinated Gauß–Weierstraß semigroup; by this we mean the family of operators which is defined through the Fourier transform F(W f u)(ξ) = e−tf(jξj2) Fu(ξ); u 2 S(Rn)(1.1) where the function f : (0; 1) ! (0; 1) is a so-called Bernstein function, see Sec- tion 3. Typical examplesp are f(x) = x (which gives the classical Gauß{Weierstraß semigroup), f(x) = x (which gives the Cauchy{Poisson semigroup) or f(x) = xα, 0 < α < 1 (which leads to the stable semigroups). In this note we prove the caloric f smoothing of (the extension of) (Wt )t≥0 in Besov and Triebel{Lizorkin spaces, see Section 2. \Caloric smoothing" refers to the smoothing effect of the semigroup which can be quantified through inequalities of the following form (f) s+d s s (1.2) Cf;d(t)kWt u j Ap;q k ≤ ku j Ap;qk for all 0 < t ≤ 1 and u 2 Ap;q; where d ≥ 0 is arbitrary, Cf;d(t) is a constant depending only on f and d, and s s Rn s Rn Cf;d(t) ! 0 as t ! 0; Ap;q = Ap;q( ) stands for a Besov space Bp;q( ) or Triebel{ s Rn Lizorkin space Fp;q( ).

  • On a Class of Finite Soluble Groups
    J. Group Theory 21 (2018), 839–846 DOI 10.1515/jgth-2018-0015 © de Gruyter 2018 On a class of finite soluble groups Adolfo Ballester-Bolinches, John Cossey and Yangming Li Communicated by Alexander Olshanskii Abstract. The aim of this paper is to study the class of finite groups in which every subgroup is self-normalising in its subnormal closure. It is proved that this class is a sub- group-closed formation of finite soluble groups which is not closed under taking Frattini extensions and whose members can be characterised by means of their Carter subgroups. This leads to new characterisations of finite soluble T-, PT- and PST-groups. Finite groups whose p-subgroups, p a prime, are self-normalising in their subnormal closure are also characterised. 1 Introduction All groups considered in this paper will be finite. It has long been known that permutable and subnormal subgroups play an important role in the structural study of the groups, and in recent years there has been a considerable interest in the phenomenon of subgroup permutability. Recall that a subgroup H is said to be permutable in a group G if HK KH for all D subgroups K of G, and Sylow permutable or S-permutable if HP PH for all D Sylow subgroups P of G. According to a known result of Kegel, S-permutable subgroups are always subnormal ([1, Theorem 1.2.14]), and the intersection of S-permutable (respectively, subnormal) subgroups of a group G is again S-per- mutable (respectively, subnormal) in G (see [1, Theorem 1.2.19] and [3, Corol- lary A.14.2]).

  • Extensions and Liftings of Positive Linear Mappings On
    TRANSACTIONSOF THE AMERICANMATHEMATICAL SOCIETY Volume 211, 1975 EXTENSIONSAND LIFTINGS OF POSITIVE LINEARMAPPINGS ON BANACHLATTICES BY HEINRICH P. LOTZi1) ABSTRACT. Let F be a closed sublattice of a Banach lattice G. We show that any positive linear mapping from F into L (i¿) or C(X) for a Stonian space X has a positive norm preserving extension to G. A dual re- sult for positive norm preserving liftings is also established. These results are applied to obtain extension and lifting theorems for order summable and majorizing linear mappings. We also obtain some partial results concerning positive extensions and liftings of compact linear mappings. The main purpose of this paper is to establish some conditions under which positive linear mappings between Banach lattices have norm preserv- ing positive linear extensions or liftings. These results are then applied to obtain extension and lifting theorems for order summable and majorizing linear mappings and to establish the inductive and projective character of the |cr|- tensor product topology introduced by Jacobs [6]. Finally, we obtain some partial results concerning the problem of finding positive, compact linear extensions and liftings of positive compact linear mappings between Banach lattices. We begin our discussion with a summary of known results concerning the corresponding problems for continuous linear mappings between Banach spaces. Suppose that E, F and G are Banach spaces, that cf> is an isometry of F into G and that T is a continuous linear mapping of F into E. When does T have a norm preserving linear extension T:G —*E, that is, when does there exist a continuous linear mapping T of G into E such that ||T|| = ||T|| and such that the following diagram commutes? If E is the scalar field, the Hahn-Banach theorem asserts that such an exten- sion T of T always exists.

  • The F-Depth of an F-Projector
    Pacific Journal of Mathematics THE Ᏺ-DEPTH OF AN Ᏺ-PROJECTOR H. J. SCHMIDT Vol. 46, No. 2 December 1973 PACIFIC JOURNAL OF MATHEMATICS Vol. 46, No. 2, 1973 THE g-DEPTH OF AN ^-PROJECTOR1 H. J. SCHMIDT, JR. Let % be a saturated formation and let G be a finite solvable group with ^-projector JP. In a fundamental work, Carter and Hawkes have shown that for suitably restricted % there is a chain of j^crucial maximal subgroups of G termi- nating with F. It is shown here that the number of links in such a chain is an ^-invariant of G, called the gf-depth of F in G and written d%(F, G). If 4(G) is the g-length of G then, provided § is normal subgroup-closed, the inequality S%(G) ^ 2 d%(F, G) + 1 is ob- tained. If F is also nilpotent of nilpotency class c(F), then it is proved that 4(G) ^ d%(F, G) + c(F). If % and ξ> are two such suitable saturated formations with § = &> comparisons of the invariants d%(F, G) and d$(H, G) are made, where F and H are respectively the $- and £>-pro- jectors of the the finite solvable group G. In particular, if H ^ F then dd(F, G) ^ d$(H, G), and if in addition d9(F, G) = d^H, G) then H = F. I* Introduction* In this paper all groups considered are finite and solvable. Throughout we let % be a saturated formation which is locally induced by a class of nonempty, integrated formations %(p), one for each prime p.
