Abstract

A subgroup H of a group G is said to be weakly s-supplemented in G if H has a supplement T in G such that HTH sG , where H sG is the largest s-permutable subgroup of G contained in H. This paper constructs an example to show that the open questions 6.3 and 6.4 in J Algebra, 315: 192–209 (2007) have negative solutions, and shows that in many cases Question 6.4 is positive. A series of known results are unified and generalized.
