Maximal subgroups of subnormal subgroups of \(\text{GL}_n(D)\) with finite conjugacy classes. (English) Zbl 1222.20035

Let \(D\) be a division ring. It is very well-known that if \(D^*\) is an FC-group, then \(D\) is a field. In the article under review the authors consider maximal subgroups of a subnormal subgroup \(N\) of \(\text{GL}_n(D)\) for \(n\geq 1\). The main result states that if a maximal subgroup \(M\) of \(N\) is an FC-group, then \(M\) is contained in the multiplicative group of some subfield of \(M_n(D)\).
