Review text

The paper provides some extensions to locally finite groups of well known results for finite groups containing a maximal subgroup which is also nilpotent. Conditions are given on the maximal subgroup under which the group is locally solvable or solvable. In particular the following are proved for the locally finite group \(G\) and the maximal subgroup \(M\) of \(G\): (i) If \(M\) is (locally) nilpotent and \(M/M_ G\) (\(M_ G\) the core in \(G\) of \(M\)) is not a \(p\)-group and has nilpotent Sylow \(p\)-subgroups, then \(G\) is (locally) solvable. (ii) If \(M/M_ G\) is a \(p\)-group and is nilpotent of class at most 2, then \(G/M_ G\) is solvable (of derived length at most 3). (iii) If \(M/M_ G\) is a \(p\)-group, \(p\neq 2\), and has finite derived group then \(G/M_ G\) is solvable. Thus a locally finite group \(G\) containing a nilpotent maximal subgroup \(M\) is solvable if \(M/M_ G\) is not a \(p\)-group or else if \(M/M_ G\) is a \(p\)-group of class at most 2, or, if \(p\neq 2\), and \(M/M_ G\) is a \(p\)-group with finite derived group.
