Flavell, preprint. The main object of study is a finite $K$-group $G$ that admits an elementary abelian group $A$ acting coprimely. For certain group theoretic properties $\\mathcal P$, we study the $AC_{G}(A)$-invariant $\\mathcal P$-subgroups of $G$. A number of results of McBride, 'Near solvable signalizer functors on finite groups' J. Algebra {\\bf 78}(1) (1982) 181-214 and 'Nonsolvable signalizer functors on finite groups', J. Algebra {\\bf 78}(1) (1982) 215-238 are extended. One purpose of this work is to build a general theory of automorphisms, one of whose applications will be a new proof of the Nonsolvable Signalizer Functor Theorem. As an illustration, this work concludes with a new proof of a special case of that theorem due to Gorenstein and Lyons.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2016-09-08T11:37:20.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "20D45" ], "keywords": [ "automorphisms", "finite groups", "elementary abelian group", "nonsolvable signalizer functor theorem", "group theoretic properties" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
