Finite groups in which some maximal subgroups are MNP-groups

From MaRDI portal





A finite group \(G\) is called an MNP-group if all maximal subgroups of its Sylow subgroups are normal in \(G\), a notion introduced by \textit{G.~L.~Walls} [Isr. J. Math. 43, 166--168 (1982; Zbl 0511.20014)]. The paper provides a characterization of finite MNP-groups in terms of the Frattini quotient, showing that \(G\) is an MNP-group if and only if \(G/\Phi(G)\) is an MNP-group.\N\NThe main results give a complete classification of finite groups whose maximal subgroups are MNP-groups, introducing the notion of sub-MNP-groups and determining all such groups explicitly. Further structure theorems describe finite groups in which all maximal subgroups of even order are MNP-groups, proving in particular that such groups are solvable and have at most three prime divisors.\N\NThe final section classifies the non-abelian simple groups whose second maximal subgroups are MNP-groups.
