Abstract:
Let
$\mathbb{P}$ be the set of all primes,
$Z_{n}$ a cyclic group of order
$n$ and
$X ~wr ~Z_{n}$ the regular wreath product of the group
$X$ with
$Z_{n}$. A Fitting class
$\mathfrak{F}$ is said to be
$\mathfrak{X}$-quasinormal (or quasinormal in a class of groups
$\mathfrak{X}$) if
$\mathfrak{F}\subseteq \mathfrak{X}$ is a prime, groups
$G\in \mathfrak{F}$ and
$G ~wr ~Z_{p}\in \mathfrak{X}$, then there exists a natural number
$m$ such that
$G^{m} ~wr ~Z_{p}\in \mathfrak{F}$. If
$\mathfrak{X}$ is the class of all soluble groups, then
$\mathfrak{F}$ is normal Fitting class. In this paper we generalize the well-known theorem of Blessenohl and Gaschutz in the theory of normal Fitting classes. It is proved, that the intersection of any set of nontrivial
$\mathfrak{X}$-quasinormal Fitting classes is a nontrivial
$\mathfrak{X}$-quasinormal Fitting class. In particular, there exists the smallest nontrivial
$\mathfrak{X}$-quasinormal Fitting class. We confirm a generalized version of the Lockett conjecture about the structure of a Fitting class for the case of
$\mathfrak{X}$-quasinormal classes, where
$\mathfrak{X}$ is a local Fitting class of partially soluble groups.
