Some results on finite trifactorized groups (Q2279007)

Let \(G\) be a group and \(X\), \(Y\) be subgroups of \(G\). \(G\) is called trifactorized by subgroups \(A\), \(B\), \(C\) if \(G=ABC\) and \(AB=BA\), \(BC=CB\) and \(CA=AC\). If \(G\) is finite and solvable, write \(h(G)\) and \(dl(G)\) for the Fitting height and derived length of \(G\), respectively. The paper establishes some new bounds for these parameters for trifactorized groups. For example, if \(G=ABC\) is trifactorized, then \(h(G)\leq h(BC)\cdot h(CA)\); and if \(h=\max\{h(BC),h(CA)\}\), then \({h(G) \leq\frac{1}{2}h(h+1)}\). Also, if \((\vert A\vert,\vert B\vert)=1\), then \(dl(G)\leq dl(AB)\cdot(dl(BC)+dl(CA))+dl(C)\). Results on the \(\pi\)-length are also included.
