Extract

In Theorem 1·2 of [3] the following extension of the classical theorem of Shult is proved.

Theorem. Let G be a p-solvable group and let V be a faithful KG-module, where char. Assume that G contains an element x of order pn acting fixed-pointfreely on V. If p is a Fermat prime suppose further that the Sylow 2-subgroups of G are abelian. If p = 2 assume that the Sylow q-subgroups of G for each Mersenne prime q less than 2n are abelian. Then
