Abstract

Let \(G\) be a finite group. A subgroup \(H\) of \(G\) is called an \(\mathcal{H }\)-subgroup of \(G\) if \(N_G(H)\cap H^g\le H\) for all \(g\in G\). A group \(G\) is said to be an \({\mathcal{H }}_p\)-group if every cyclic subgroup of \(G\) of prime order or order 4 is an \(\mathcal{H }\)-subgroup of \(G\). In this paper, the structure of a finite group all of whose second maximal subgroups are \({\mathcal{H }}_p\)-subgroups has been characterized.
