Abstract:
Let $\pi$ be some set of primes. A subgroup $H$ of a finite group $G$ is called a Hall $\pi$-subgroup if any prime divisor of the order $|H|$ of the subgroup $H$ belongs to $\pi$ and the index $|G:H|$ is not a multiple of any number in $\pi$. The famous Hall theorem states that a solvable finite group always contains a Hall $\pi$ subgroup and any two Hall $\pi$-subgroups of such group are conjugate. The converse of the Hall theorem is also true: for any nonsolvable group $G$, there exists a set $\pi$ such that $G$ does not contain Hall $\pi$-subgroups. Nevertheless, Hall $\pi$-subgroups may exist in a nonsolvable group. There are examples of sets $\pi$ such that, in any finite group containing a Hall $\pi$-subgroup, all Hall $\pi$-subgroups are conjugate (and, as a consequence, are isomorphic). In 1987 F. Gross showed that any set $\pi$ of odd primes has this property. In addition, in nonsolvable groups for some sets $\pi$, Hall $\pi$-subgroups can be nonconjugate but isomorphic (say, in $PSL_2(7)$ for $\pi=\{2,3\}$) and even nonisomorphic (in $PSL_2(11)$ for $\pi=\{2,3\}$). We prove that the existence of a finite group with nonconjugate Hall $\pi$-subgroups for a set $\pi$ implies the existence of a group with nonisomorphic Hall $\pi$-subgroups. The converse statement is obvious.
Keywords:
