We show that S n has at most n 6Â11+o(1) conjugacy classes of primitive maximal subgroups. This improves an n c log 3 n bound given by Babai. We conclude that the number of conjugacy classes of maximal subgroups of S n is of the form ( 12 +o(1))n. It also follows that, for large n, S n has less than

Let G be a finite group and let M be a maximal subgroup of G. Let K/L be a chief factor of G such that L ≤ M and G = MK. We call the group M ∩ K/L a c-section of M in G. All c-sections of M are isomorphic. Using the concept of c-sections, we obtain some new characterizations of solvable and π-solvab

We determine all maximal subgroups of the direct product G n of n copies of a group G. If G is finite, we show that the number of maximal subgroups of G n is a quadratic function of n if G is perfect, but grows exponentially otherwise. We deduce a theorem of Wiegold about the growth behaviour of the

Let D be a division algebra of finite dimension over its center F. Given a Ž . noncommutative maximal subgroup M of D\* [ GL D , it is proved that either 1 M contains a noncyclic free subgroup or there exists a maximal subfield K of D Ž . which is Galois over F such that K \* is normal in M and MrK
