Abstract:
The purpose of this paper is to establish some basic properties of the Wielandt subgroup of a polycyclic group. The Wielandt subgroup of a group G is defined to be the intersection of the normalisers of all the subnormal subgroups of G and is denoted by ω(G). In 1958 Wielandt [9] showed that any minimal normal subgroup with the minimum condition on subnormal subgroups is contained in the Wielandt subgroup: it follows that the Wielandt subgroup of an artinian group is nontrivial. In contrast, the Wielandt subgroup of a polycyclic group can be trivial; an easy example is given by the infinite dihedral group. We will show that the Wielandt subgroup of a polycyclic group is close to being central.

Abstract:
The Wielandt subgroup ω(G) of a group G is the subgroup of elements that normalize every subnormal subgroup of G. This subgroup, now named for Wielandt, was introduced by him in 1958 [15]. For a finite non-trivial group the Wielandt subgroup is always a non-trivial, characteristic subgroup. Thus it is possible to define the ascending Wielandt series for a finite group G which terminates at the group. Write ω0(G) = 1, and for i ≥ 1, ωi(G)/ωi–1(G) = ω(G/ωi–1(G)). The smallest n such that ωn(G) = G is called the Wielandt length of G, and the class of groups of Wielandt length at most n is denoted by . From the definition it follows that is closed under homomorphic images and taking normal subgroups. Nilpotent groups in are also closed under taking subgroups.

Abstract:
Let G be a group. The norm, or Kern of G is the subgroup of elements of G which normalize every subgroup of the group. This idea was introduced in 1935 by Baer [1, 2], who delineated the basic properties of the norm. A related concept is the subgroup introduced by Wielandt [10] in 1958, and now named for him. The Wielandt subgroup of a group G is the subgroup of elements normalizing every subnormal subgroup of G. In the case of finite nilpotent groups these two concepts coincide, of course, since all subgroups of a finite nilpotent group are subnormal. Of late the Wielandt subgroup has been widely studied, and the name tends to be the more used, even in the finite nilpotent context when, perhaps, norm would be more natural. We denote the Wielandt subgroup of a group G by ω(G). The Wielandt series of subgroups ω1(G) is defined by: ω1(G) = ω(G) and for i ≥ 1, ωi+1(G)/ ω(G) = ω(G/ωi, (G)). The subgroups of the upper central series we denote by ζi(G).

Abstract:
The Wielandt subgroup is the intersection of the normalisers of all the subnormal subgroups of a group. For a finite group it is a non-trivial characteristic subgroup, and this makes it possible to define an ascending normal series terminating at the group. This series is called the Wielandt series and its length determines the Wielandt length of the group. In this paper the Wielandt subgroup of a metacyclic p–group is identified, and using this information it is shown that if a metacyclic p–group has Wielandt length n, its nilpotency class is n or n + 1.

Abstract:
We develop a technique for calculating the Wielandt subgroup of a semidirect product of two finite groups of coprime order. We apply this technique to calculate the Wielandt length of a supersoluble group in terms of the Wielandt lengths of its Sylow subgroups (for small Wielandt lengths) and in terms of the nilpotency classes of its Sylow subgroups.

Abstract:
The Wielandt subgroup w(G) of a group G is defined to be the intersection of the normalizers of all the subnormal subgroups of G. If G is a group satisfying the minimal condition on subnormal subgroups then Wielandt [10] showed that w(G) contains every minimal normal subgroup of G, and so contains the socle of G, and, later, Robinson [6] and Roseblade [9] proved that w(G) has finite index in G.

Abstract:
The Wielandt subgroup ω(G) of a group G is defined to be the intersection of all normalizers of subnormal subgroups of G; the terms of the Wielandt series of G are defined, inductively, by putting ω0(G) = 1 and (ωn+1(G)/ωn(G) = ω(G/ωn(G)). If, for some integer n, ωn(G) = G, then G is said to have finite Wielandt length; the Wielandt length of G being the minimal n such that ωn(G) = G.

Abstract:
Finite p-groups of Wielandt length 1 are groups in which every subgroup is normal and are Dedekind groups. When the prime is odd therefore a finite p-group of Wielandt length 1 is Abelian. For an odd prime, a finite p-group of Wielandt length 2 has nilpotency class at most 3 and for such a goup to have class 3 there must be a 2-generator subgroup of this class. In this paper it is shown that for any prime p > 3 a finite p-group of Wielandt length 3 has nilpotency class at most 4, and for such a group to have class 4 there must be a 2-generator subgroup with this class. Two families of p-groups of Wielandt length 3 are described. One is a family of 3-generator groups with the property that each group modulo its Wielandt subgroup has class 2, the other is a family of 2-generator groups with the property that each group modulo its Wielandt subgroup has class 3.

Abstract:
AbstractThe intersection IW(G) of the normalizers of the infinite subnormal subgroups of a group G is a characteristic subgroup containing the Wielandt subgroup W(G) which we call the generalized Wielandt subgroup. In this paper we show that if G is infinite, then the structure of IW(G)/ W(G) is quite restricted, being controlled by a certain characteristic subgroup S(G). If S(G) is finite, then so is IW(G)/ W(G), whereas if S(G) is an infinite Prüfer-by-finite group, then IW(G)/W(G) is metabelian. In all other cases, IW(G) = W(G).

Abstract:
The Wielandt subgroup of a group is the intersection of the normalisers of its subnormal subgroups. It is non-trivial in any finite group and thus gives rise to a series whose length provides a measure of the complexity of the group's subnormal structure. In this paper results of Ormerod concerning the interplay between the Wielandt series and upper central series of metabelian p-groups, p odd, are extended to the class of all odd order metabelian groups. These extensions are formulated in terms of a natural generalization of the upper central series which arises from Casolo's strong Wielandt subgroup, the intersection of the centralisers of a group's nilpotent subnormal sections.
