A remarkable result of Thompson states that a finite group is soluble if and only if all its two-generated subgroups are soluble. This result has been generalized in numerous ways, and it is in the core of a wide area of research in the theory of groups, aiming for global properties of groups from local properties of two-generated (or more generally, n-generated) subgroups. We contribute an extension of Thompson’s theorem from the perspective of factorized groups. More precisely, we study finite groups G=ABG = AB with subgroups A,BA,\, B such that a,b\langle a, b\rangle is soluble for all aAa \in A and bBb \in B. In this case, the group G is said to be an S{{\mathcal {S}}}-connected product of the subgroups A and B for the class S{\mathcal {S}} of all finite soluble groups. Our Main Theorem states that G=ABG = AB is S{\mathcal {S}}-connected if and only if [A, B] is soluble. In the course of the proof, we derive a result about independent primes regarding the soluble graph of almost simple groups that might be interesting in its own right.

For a non-empty class of groups L\cal L, a finite group G=ABG = AB is said to be an L\cal L-connected product of the subgroups A and B if a,bL\langle a, b\rangle \in \cal L for all aAa \in A and bBb \in B. In a previous paper, we prove that for such a product, when L=S\cal L = \cal S is the class of finite soluble groups, then [A,B] is soluble. This generalizes the theorem of Thompson which states the solubility of finite groups whose two-generated subgroups are soluble. In the present paper our result is applied to extend to finite groups previous research in the soluble universe. In particular, we characterize connected products for relevant classes of groups; among others the class of metanilpotent groups and the class of groups with nilpotent derived subgroup. Also we give local descriptions of relevant subgroups of finite groups.

In this case, the group G is said to be an S\cal S-connected product of the subgroups A and B for the class S\cal S of all finite soluble groups. Our main theorem states that G=ABG = AB is S\cal S-connected if and only if [A,B] is soluble. In the course of the proof we derive a result of own interest about independent primes regarding the soluble graph of almost simple groups.

In this paper we study groups G generated by two subgroups A and B such that 〈. a, b〉 is nilpotent of class at most 2 for all a∈. A and b∈. B. A detailed description of the structure of such groups is obtained, generalizing the classical result of Hopkins and Levi on 2-Engel groups.

A Fitting class FF is called dominant in the class of all finite soluble groups SS if F⊆SF⊆S and for every group G∈SG∈S any two FF-maximal subgroups of G containing the FF-radical GFGF of G are conjugate in G. In this paper a characterization of dominant local Fitting classes in the class of all finite soluble groups is established.

For a non-empty class of groups C, two subgroups A and B of a group G are said to be C-connected if 〈a,b〉∈C for all a∈A and b∈B. Given two sets π and ρ of primes, SπSρ denotes the class of all finite soluble groups that are extensions of a normal π-subgroup by a ρ-group.It is shown that in a finite group G=AB, with A and B soluble subgroups, then A and B are SπSρ-connected if and only if Oρ(B) centralizes AOπ(G)/Oπ(G), Oρ(A) centralizes BOπ(G)/Oπ(G) and G∈Sπ∪ρ. Moreover, if in this situation A and B are in SπSρ, then G is in SπSρ.This result is then extended to a large family of saturated formations F, the so-called nilpotent-like Fitting formations of soluble groups, and to finite groups that are products of arbitrarily many pairwise permutable F-connected F-subgroups.

For a non-empty class of groups ℱ, two subgroups A and B of a finite group G are said to be ℱ-connected if 〈a, b〉 ∈ ℱ for all a ∈ A and b ∈ B. This paper is a study of ℱ-connection for saturated formations ℱ ⊆ (where denotes the class of all finite groups with nilpotent commutator subgroup). The class of all finite supersoluble groups constitutes an example of such a saturated formation. It is shown for example that in a finite soluble group G = AB the subgroups A and B are -connected if and only if [A, B] ⩽ F(G), where F(G) denotes the Fitting subgroup of G. Also ℱ-connected finite soluble products for any saturated formation ℱ with ℱ ⊆ are characterized.

Two subgroups H and K of a finite group G are said to be N-connected if the subgroup generated by x and y is a nilpotent group, for every pair of elements x in H and y in K. This paper is devoted to the study of pairwise N-connected and permutable products of finitely many groups, in the framework of formation and Fitting class theory.

... We take further previous research on the influence of two-generated subgroups on the structure of groups, in interaction with the study of products of subgroups. In [13] the following result is proven: (2) For all primes p = q, all p-elements a ∈ A and all q-elements b ∈ B, a, b is soluble. Obviously, for the special case A = B = G, the following well-known result of J. Thompson is derived: [18,6] ...

... Structure and properties of N -connected products, for the class N of finite nilpotent groups, are well known (cf. [1,14,2]); for instance, G = AB is an N -connected product of A and B if and only if G modulo its hypercenter is a direct product of the images of A and B. Apart from the above-mentioned results regarding S-connection, corresponding studies for the classes N 2 and N A of metanilpotent groups, and groups with nilpotent derived subgroup, respectively, have been carried out in [8,9]; in [10] connected products for the class S π S ρ of finite soluble groups that are extensions of a normal π-subgroup by a ρ-subgroup, for arbitrary sets of primes π and ρ, are studied. The class S π S ρ appears in that reference as the relevant case of a large family of formations, named nilpotent-like Fitting formations, which comprise a variety of classes of groups, such as the class of π-closed soluble groups, or groups with Sylow towers with respect to total orderings of the primes. ...

... They have obtained the following nice result: Assume that G = AB is the product of two supersoluble subgroups A and B. If every subgroup of A is permutable with every subgroup of B, then G is supersoluble. In addition, they have also generalized the above mentioned result of Baer by replacing the condition of normality of A, B in G and using the following weaker condition: A permutes with all subgroups of B and B permutes with all subgroups of A. Their results in [3] were further developed and applied by many authors (see, for example, [1] [5][6][7][8], [14], [19]). We also notice that O.H.Kegel has also obtained many elegant results for soluble groups and supersoluble groups by considering the products of their subgroups (see [16][17][18]). ...

... There has been substantial research on characterizations of F-injector for various types of soluble Fitting classes F (see [5,6,7,9,10,12,14,15]). It is well known that the product of any two Fitting classes is also Fitting class and multiplication of Fitting classes satisfies associative law (see [3,Theorem IX.(1.12)(a),(c)]). ...

Later on, a deep understanding of the structure of such groups has been reached and this study has been extended both in the frameworks of formation theory (see[7]–[10],[12],[15],[16],[33]) as well as in the theory of Fitting classes ([22]–[24]).

... But initially R. Maier in [24] proved that Asaad and Shaalan result is a particular case of a more general one when considering the class U of supersoluble groups as a saturated formation (containing U ). Later on it was proved that Maier's result extends to non-saturated formations which contain all supersoluble groups [6] and totally permutable products of groups have been deeply studied both in the frameworks of formation theory (see [7,10]) as well as in the theory of Fitting classes [17][18][19]. W. Guo, K.P. Shum and A.N. Skiba in [16] have extended previous results by considering a weaker condition of subgroups permutability, namely conditional permutability. More precisely they consider the following concepts: ...
