Abstract

AnN-Injector in an arbitrary finite groupG is defined as a maximal nilpotent subgroup ofG, containing a subgroupA ofG of maximal order satisfying class(A)>=2. Among other results theN-Injectors of Sym(n) are determined and shown to consist of a unique conjugacy class of subgroups of Sym(n).
