Abstract

Given a maximal subgroup M of a finite group G,a θ completion of M in G is any subgroup C such that C is not contained in M while M_G , the core of M in G, is contained in C and C/M_G has no propor normal subgroup of G/M_G . By using this concept we can reveal the relationship between the concepts of completions and θ-pairs introduced respectively by Deskins, Mukherjee and Bhattacharya. The concept of maximal θ-completions offers a convenience for us to study the Deskins completions in inductions. We obtain in this paper several results which imply a group to be solvable, supersolvable and nilpotent.
