Abstract
A maximal chain in a finite lattice L is called smooth if any two intervals of the same length are isomorphic. We call a lattice L totally smooth if all maximal chains of L are smooth. The main concept in this paper is that of a generalized smooth group, that is, a group G such that [G/H] is totally smooth for every subgroup H of G of prime order. The purpose of this paper is to determine the structure of generalized smooth groups.
