Isomorphic subgroups of solvable groups. (English) Zbl 1330.20028
Let \(G\) be a finite group, and let \(H\) and \(K\) be subgroups of \(G\). Suppose that \(H\) is a maximal subgroup of \(G\), and \(H\) is isomorphic to \(K\). Then, it is not necessarily the case that \(K\) is also a maximal subgroup of \(G\). However, it is not known whether the hypotheses above imply that \(K\) is a maximal subgroup of \(G\) whenever \(G\) is solvable.
In this paper, the authors prove this implication holds in some cases. In particular, from their Theorem A it follows that the implication holds when \(G\) is solvable and \(H\) is supersolvable. In their Theorem B they show that the implication holds whenever \(G\) is solvable and \(H\) has an abelian Sylow \(2\)-subgroup. For the proof of Theorem B, they use some properties of nilpotent injectors and Glauberman’s ZJ-Theorem.
