Abstract:

On Aschbacher's definition, a subgroup N of a finite group G is called a p-superlocal for a prime p if N=N_G(O_p(N)). We describe the p-superlocals in symmetric and alternating groups, thereby resolving part way Problem 11.3 in the Kourovka Notebook [3].

Keywords: symmetric group; alternating group; p-superlocal
