Areas of Interest

Algebra, group theory

Algebra, group theory. Topics of particular interest:

Sylow subgroups,how the group acts on them via conjugation,and how they intersect.
Solvable groups-their conjugacy classes of subgroups.
Subgroup lattices-intervals in the lattice and the influence of permutable subgroups on this lattice.
Characterizing subgroups with embedding properties in direct products.
