Let π be a nonempty set of primes and let F be a saturated formation of all finite soluble π-groups. It is constructed the saturated formation consisting of all finite π-soluble groups whose F-projectors contain a Hall π-subgroup. Introduction In the theory of soluble Fitting classes P. Lockett and P. Hauck considered the classes Lπ(F) and Kπ(F). Definition 1 ([1, 2]). Let π be a set of primes and let F be a Fitting class of finite soluble groups. Then Lπ(F) = (G ∈ S : an F-injector of G contains a Hall π-subgroup of G); Kπ(F) = (G ∈ S : a Hall π-subgroup of G belongs to F). In [1] (see also [3, IX, 1.22]) Lockett used the class Lπ(F) to obtain a description of the injectors for a Fitting class product FG. It was proved that Lπ(F) and Kπ(F) are Fitting classes.

Mekhovich, N. N. Vorob’ev, N. T. Vorob’ev 73 Lπ(F ∩Sπ). Hence we may consider Lπ and Kπ as operators on the set of all Fitting classes for every π. The class Kπ(F) was introduced by Hauck [2] and has been studied in detail by Brison [4] and Cusack [5]. Moreover, Brison [6, 7] applied Kπ(F) to obtain a description of Hall subgroups radicals. Analogously one may consider the following operators on the set of all soluble formations. Definition 2 ([8, 9]). Let π be a set of primes and let F be a formation of finite soluble groups. Then Lπ(F) = (G ∈ S : an F-projector of G contains a Hall π-subgroup of G); Kπ(F) = (G ∈ S : a Hall π-subgroup of G belongs to F). In [9] Blessenohl proved that if F is a saturated formation, then Kπ(F) is a saturated formation. Further L.A. Shemetkov posed the following question in this trend. Problem (see [10, Problem 19]). Let F be a saturated formation of finite groups, Cπ(F) be the class of all groups G such that there exist Hall π- subgroups of G in F and any two of them are conjugate. Is the class Cπ(F) a saturated formation? The positive answer of Problem 19 was given by L.M. Slepova [11] in the class of all π-separable groups for some restrictions to F; in [12] it was shown by E.P. Vdovin, D.O. Revin and L.A. Shemetkov that Cπ(F) is solubly saturated formation for any solubly saturated formation F. However L.A. Shemetkov and A.F. Vasil’ev [13] proved that in general the class Cπ(N) is not a saturated formation, where N is the class of all nilpotent groups. Wenbin Guo and Baojin Li [14] proved that Kπ(F) is a local Fit- ting class for every local Fitting class F. In general N.T. Vorob’ev and V.N. Zagurskii [15] gave the positive answer of Shemetkov’s Problem for soluble ω-local Fitting classes. K. Doerk and T. Hawkes investigated an analog of Problem 19 for the class Lπ(F). It was proved, that if F is a solubly saturated formation, then Lπ(F) is a saturated formation (see [8, Bemerkung]). Note that the analog of the above-mentioned problem has the negative answer for soluble Schunck classes (see [8, Beispiel 1]) and soluble Fitting classes (see [3, IX, 3.15]). A purpose of this paper is to investigate an analog of Shemetkov’s Problem for the class Lπ(F), where F is the saturated formation of all soluble π-groups. Jo u rn al A lg eb ra D is cr et e M at h .74 Hall operators... All groups considered are finite and π-soluble for some fixed nonempty set of primes π. All unexplained notations and terminologies are stan- dard. The reader is refereed to [16], [10] and [3] if necessary. 1. Preliminaries Recall notation and some definitions used in this paper. A group class closed under taking homomorphic images and finite subdirect products is called a formation. A group G is said to be π-soluble if every chief factor of G is either a p-group for some p ∈ π or a π′-subgroup. The complementary set of primes, P\π, is denoted by π′. σ(G) de- notes the set of all distinct prime divisors of the order of a group G. Functions of the form f : P → {formations of groups} are called local satellites (see [10]). For every local satellite f it is defined the class LF (f) = (G : G has f -central chief series), i.e., for every chief factor H/K of G we have G/CG(H/K) ∈ f(p) for every p ∈ π(H/K). If F is a formation such that F = LF (f) for a local satellite f , then the formation F is said to be saturated and f is a local satellite of F. If F is a saturated formation, by [3, IV, 4.3] we have Char(F) = σ(F), where σ(F) = ⋃ {σ(G) : G ∈ F}. A satellite F of a formation F is called canonical if F (p) ⊆ F, and F (p) = NpF (p) for all p ∈ P [17]. Let F be a formation. A subgroup H of a group G is called F-maximal in G provided that (1) H ∈ F, and (2) if H 6 V 6 G and V ∈ F, then H = V . A subgroup H of G is called an F-projector of G if HN/N is F- maximal in G/N for all N EG. By ProjFG we denote the (possibly empty) set of all F-projectors of G. Let F be a saturated formation and let H be a formation. Following [3, IV, 1.1] we denote the class (F ։ H) as follows: (F ։ H) = (G : ProjFG ⊆ H). Jo u rn al A lg eb ra D is cr et e M at h .A. P. Mekhovich, N. N. Vorob’ev, N. T. Vorob’ev 75 If H = ∅, then (F ։ H) = ∅. If RB ⊇ A, then it is said that A/B covered by R. The symbols Gπ, Sπ, Eπ′ , Eπ and Np denote, respectively, a Hall π-subgroup of a group G, the class of all π-soluble groups, the class of all π′-groups, the class of all π-groups and the class of all p-groups. We need some lemmas to prove the main result. Lemma 1 ([18, Lemma 1.2, Lemma 1.3]). Let F = LF (F ) be the forma- tion of all soluble π-groups. Then the following statements hold: (1) F = LF (m), where m(p) = (F ։ F (p)) for all p ∈ P. (2) If V is an F-projector of a group G, then: (a) V covers every m-central chief factor of G. (b) Every chief factor of G covered of the subgroup V is m-central. Lemma 2 ([10, Theorem 15.7]). Let F be a saturated formation and G be a group having σ(F)-soluble F-residual. Then G has F-projectors and any two of them are conjugate. 2. The proof of Theorem First we prove Lemma 3. Let F be a saturated formation of all soluble π-groups. Then the following statements hold: (1) The class Lπ(F) is a formation. (2) Eπ′Lπ(F) = Lπ(F). Proof. (1) If π = ∅, then L∅(F) = Sπ; if π = P, then LP(F) = F. We have saturated formations Sπ and F, and hence the result. Now suppose ∅ ⊂ π ⊂ P. Since a formation F is saturated, by [3, IV, 4.3] we have Char(F) = σ(F). Since σ(F) ⊆ π, a π-soluble group G is σ(F)-soluble. Consequently, the subgroup GF of G is σ(F)-soluble. Let G ∈ Lπ(F), let K ⊳ G and let F be an F-projector of G. Then there exists a Hall π-subgroup Gπ of G such that Gπ ⊆ F . By [10, Lemma 15.2] and [10, Lemma 15.1], we see that GπK/K is a Hall π-subgroup of G/K and FK/K is an F-projector of G/K. Therefore G/K ∈ Lπ(F). Let K1 and K2 be normal subgroups of G such that K1∩K2 = 1 and let G/K1 ∈ Lπ(F) and G/K2 ∈ Lπ(F). Then GπK1/K1 ⊆ FK1/K1 and GπK2/K2 ⊆ FK2/K2, where GπK1/K1 is a Hall π-subgroup of G/K1 Jo u rn al A lg eb ra D is cr et e M at h .76 Hall operators... and GπK2/K2 is a Hall π-subgroup of G/K2, FK1/K1 is an F-projector of G/K1 and FK2/K2 is an F-projector of G/K2. Therefore GπK1 ⊆ FK1 and GπK2 ⊆ FK2. Hence GπK1 ∩GπK2 ⊆ FK1∩FK2. By [18, Lemma 1.4] and [10, Theorem 15.2] we have Gπ(K1∩ K2) ⊆ F (K1 ∩K2), i.e., Gπ ⊆ F . Thus G ∈ Lπ(F). This proves (1). (2) Inclusion Lπ(F) ⊆ Eπ′Lπ(F) is obvious. We show that Eπ′Lπ(F) ⊆ Lπ(F). Let G ∈ Eπ′Lπ(F). Then GLπ(F) ∈ Eπ′ and G/GLπ(F) ∈ Lπ(F). Let Gπ be a Hall π-subgroup of G and let F be an F-projector of G. By [10, Lemma 15.2] and [10, Lemma 15.1], we see, GπG Lπ(F)/GLπ(F) is a Hall π-subgroup of G/GLπ(F) and FGLπ(F)/GLπ(F) is an F-projector of G/GLπ(F). Therefore GπG Lπ(F)/GLπ(F) ⊆ F xGLπ(F)/GLπ(F). By [10, Lemma 15.1], F xGLπ(F)/GLπ(F) is an F-projector of G/GLπ(F), where x ∈ G/GLπ(F). Consequently, \|G/GLπ(F) : F xGLπ(F)/GLπ(F)\| = \|G\| \|F xGLπ(F)\| = \|G\|\|F ∩GLπ(F)\| \|F \|\|GLπ(F)\| = \|G\| \|F \|\|GLπ(F)\| is a π′-number. Since \|GLπ(F)\| is a π′-number, \|G : F \| is a π′-number. Thus a Hall π-subgroup Gπ of G is contained in the F-projector F of G. Hence G ∈ Lπ(F). The lemma is proved. The following theorem shows that if F is a saturated formation, then the formation Lπ(F) is saturated. Theorem. Let F = LF (F ) be the formation of all soluble π-groups. Then Lπ(F) = LF (f) for a local satellite f such that f(p) = { (F ։ F (p)), if p ∈ π, Sπ, if p ∈ π′. Proof. If π = ∅, then L∅(F) = Sπ; if π = P, then LP(F) = F. We have saturated formations Sπ and F, and hence the result. Now suppose ∅ ⊂ π ⊂ P. Since a formation F is saturated, by [3, IV, 4.3] we have Char(F) = σ(F). So a π-soluble group G is σ(F)-soluble. Consequently, the subgroup GF of G is σ(F)-soluble. By Lemma 1 we have F = LF (m), where m is a local satellite of F such that m(p) = F ։ F (p) for all p ∈ P. Jo u rn al A lg eb ra D is cr et e M at h .A. P. Mekhovich, N. N. Vorob’ev, N. T. Vorob’ev 77 We show LF (f) ⊆ Lπ(F). Suppose LF (f) * Lπ(F). Let G be a group of minimal order in LF (f)\Lπ(F). Then G is a monolithic group and K = GLπ(F) is the socle of G. We have \|G/K\| < \|G\|, so by induction, G/K ∈ Lπ(F). If T is an F-projector of G and Gπ is a Hall π-subgroup of G, then by the definition Lπ(F), we have GπK/K ⊆ TK/K. Hence GπK ⊆ TK. Since G is π-soluble, K is either a p-group, where p ∈ π or a normal π′-subgroup. Let K be a p-group, where p ∈ π. Since G ∈ LF (f), G/CG(K) ∈ f(p) = (F ։ F (p)). By Lemma 1, an F-projector T covers K, i.e., K ⊆ T . Therefore T = TK ⊇ GπK ⊇ Gπ. It follows that G ∈ Lπ(F), a contradiction. Now let K ∈ Eπ′ . Lemma 3 implies G ∈ Eπ′Lπ(F) = Lπ(F), a contradiction. We prove the converse inclusion, i.e., Lπ(F) ⊆ LF (f). Suppose Lπ(F) * LF (f). Let H be a group of minimal order in Lπ(F)\LF (f). Then H is a monolithic group and R = HLF (f) is the socle of H. Since H is π-soluble, R is either a p-group, where p ∈ π or a normal π′-subgroup. Let R be a π′-subgroup. By induction, H/R ∈ LF (f). Consequently, all factors of the chief series H ⊃ . . . ⊃ R are f -central. By assumption, H/CH(R) ∈ Sπ = f(p). Hence H ∈ LF (f), a contradiction. Now let R be a p-group, where p ∈ π. If Hπ is a Hall π-subgroup of H and V is an F-projector of H, then by Chunihin’s Theorem [19], we have R ⊆ Hπ. Since H ∈ Lπ(F), Hπ ⊆ V . Consequently, R ⊆ V , i.e., V covers R. Lemma 1 implies that R is m-central chief factor of H. By induction, H/R ∈ LF (f). Consequently, H ∈ LF (f). This final contradiction completes the proof. References [1] P.
