Abstract
Let An denote the alternating group of degree n. Consider a group G whose spectrum, i.e. the set of element orders, equals the spectrum of A7. Assume that G has a subgroup H isomorphic to A4 whose involutions are squares of elements of order 4. Then either O2(H) ⊆ O2(G)or G has a nonabelian finite simple subgroup.
