On the non-existence of finite groups with certain normal subgroups

preprint2026arXivOpen access

Abstract

Problem 20.21 of Mazurov and Khukhro (Unsolved Problems in Group Theory: The Kourovka Notebook, 20th Issue, 2022), contributed by M.~Conder and attributed to G.~Verret, asks whether there exists a finite group GG with two normal subgroups KK and LL of index 1212 such that K≅LK \cong L, but with non-isomorphic quotients G/K≅C12G/K \cong C_{12} and G/L≅A4.G/L \cong A_4. We prove that no such finite group exists.
