Groups admitting a Kantor family and a factorized normal subgroup

  • We study the structure of a finite group G admitting a Kantor family (F,F*)of type (s,t ) and a nontrivial normal subgroup X which is factorized by F U F*. The most interesting cases, giving necessary conditions on the structure of G and the parameters s and t, are those where a further Kantor family is induced in X, or where a partial congruence partition is induced in the factor group G / X . Most of the known finite generalized quadrangles can be constructed as coset geometries with respect to a Kantor family. We show that the parameters of a skew translation generalized quadrangle necessarily are powers of the same prime. Furthermore, the structure of nonabelian groups admitting a Kantor family consisting only of abelian members is considered.
