The lattice of very-well-placed subgroups (Q2563969)

The well-placed subgroups of a soluble group were introduced by Hawkes. The paper shows that the answer to the question: ``is the set of the well-placed subgroups of a group \(G\) a sublattice of the subgroup lattice of \(G\)?'' is negative in general. The author introduces a special type of well-placed subgroup called very-well-placed subgroup and studies its properties. One proves that the set of the very-well-placed subgroups of a group \(G\) associated to a Hall system \(\Sigma\) of \(G\) is a sublattice of the subgroup lattice of \(G\). All these sublattices are completely described.
