Abstract

A subgroup H of a finite group G is weakly-supplemented in G if there exists a proper subgroup K of G such that G = HK. In the paper it is proved that a finite group G is p-nilpotent provided p is the smallest prime number dividing the order of G and every minimal subgroup of PG′ is weakly-supplemented in N G (P), where P is a Sylow p-subgroup of G. As applications, some interesting results with weakly-supplemented minimal subgroups of PG′ are obtained.
