Abstract:
A subgroup $M$ of a group $G$ is an $n$-maximal subgroups of $G$
if there is a subgroup chain
$M=M_n\leq M_{n-1}\leq \ldots \leq M_1\leq M_0=G$
such that $M_{i+1}$ is a maximal subgroup of $M_i$.
We establish a criterion for a group
with absolutely $\mathfrak{F}$-subnormal
$n$-maximal subgroups to belong to
a subgroup-closed saturated formation $\mathfrak{F}$
containing all nilpotent groups.
