Abstract
Let G be a finite group and ℱ a saturated formation of finite groups. We say that G is quasi-ℱ-group if for every ℱ-eccentric chief factor H/K of G and every x ∈ G, x induces an inner automorphism on H/K. In particular, we have the concepts of quasisoluble, quasisupersoluble, quasimetanilpotent groups, and so on. In this article, we obtain some results about the quasi-ℱ-groups and use them to give the conditions under which a group is quasisoluble, quasimetanilpotent, or quasisupersoluble.
