Solvability of normal subgroups of finite groups (Q1311099)

Let \(K\) be a normal subgroup of a finite group \(G\). A maximal subgroup \(M\) of group \(G\) is \(K\)-maximal in \(G\) if \(M\cap K\neq 1\) and \(M\) does not contain \(K\). The present paper establishes solvability of normal subgroups \(K\) under certain conditions on \(K\)-maximal subgroups. Theorem. If, for each \(K\)-maximal subgroup \(M\) of group \(G\), either \(M\cap K\) is nilpotent or the index \(|G:M|\) is primary and not equal to 7 or 8, then \(K\) is solvable. Let \(S(K)\) denote the product of all solvable normal subgroups of \(K\). It is shown that, if every \(K\)-maximal subgroup is of primary index, then either \(K\) is solvable or \(K/S(K)\) is isomorphic to \(\text{PSL}(2,7)\).
