Abstract

For a maximal subgroup \( M \) of a group \( G \), the order of a chief factor \( H/K \) of \( G \) is called the normal index of \( M \), where \( H \) is a minimal normal supplement to \( M \) in \( G \). We mainly study the influence of normal index of maximal subgroups on the structure of some nonsolvable groups.
