Abstract: Let $mathcalC$ be a set of finite groups which is closed under taking subgroups and let $d$ and $M$ be positive integers. Suppose that for any $GinmathcalC$ whose order is divisible by at most two distinct primes there exists an abelian subgroup $AsubseteqG$ such that $A$ is generated by at most $d$ elements and $[G:A]leM$. We prove that there exists a positive constant $C_0$ such that any $GinmathcalC$ has an abelian subgroup $A$ satisfying $[G:A]le{C}_0$, and $A$ can be generated by at most $d$ elements. We also prove some related results. Our proofs use the Classification of Finite Simple Groups.
