Sous-groupe de Hall

Résumé
In mathematics, specifically group theory, a Hall subgroup of a finite group G is a subgroup whose order is coprime to its index. They were introduced by the group theorist . A Hall divisor (also called a unitary divisor) of an integer n is a divisor d of n such that d and n/d are coprime. The easiest way to find the Hall divisors is to write the prime power factorization of the number in question and take any subset of the factors. For example, to find the Hall divisors of 60, its prime power factorization is 22 × 3 × 5, so one takes any product of 3, 22 = 4, and 5. Thus, the Hall divisors of 60 are 1, 3, 4, 5, 12, 15, 20, and 60. A Hall subgroup of G is a subgroup whose order is a Hall divisor of the order of G. In other words, it is a subgroup whose order is coprime to its index. If π is a set of primes, then a Hall π-subgroup is a subgroup whose order is a product of primes in π, and whose index is not divisible by any primes in π. Any Sylow subgroup of a group is a Hall subgroup. The alternating group A4 of order 12 is solvable but has no subgroups of order 6 even though 6 divides 12, showing that Hall's theorem (see below) cannot be extended to all divisors of the order of a solvable group. If G = A5, the only simple group of order 60, then 15 and 20 are Hall divisors of the order of G, but G has no subgroups of these orders. The simple group of order 168 has two different conjugacy classes of Hall subgroups of order 24 (though they are connected by an outer automorphism of G). The simple group of order 660 has two Hall subgroups of order 12 that are not even isomorphic (and so certainly not conjugate, even under an outer automorphism). The normalizer of a Sylow 2-subgroup of order 4 is isomorphic to the alternating group A4 of order 12, while the normalizer of a subgroup of order 2 or 3 is isomorphic to the dihedral group of order 12. proved that if G is a finite solvable group and π is any set of primes, then G has a Hall π-subgroup, and any two Hall π-subgroups are conjugate.
