Extract

This paper is a continuation of [1], where we introduced the concept and investigated the basic properties of Fitting functors for finite solvable groups. We recall that a map f which assigns to each finite solvable group G a non-empty set f(G) of subgroups of G is called a Fitting functor if the following property is satisfied: whenever α: GH is a monomorphism with α(G) ⊴ H, then

The most prominent examples of conjugate Fitting functors are provided by injectors of Fitting classes. However, Fitting functors f in general do not behave as nicely as injectors. For instance, f(G) need not consist of pronormal subgroups of a group G (cf. [1], 4·3).
