Let be a finite group whose order is divisible by the prime . Suppose is the highest power of which is a factor of and set
Then
- 1.
the group contains at least one subgroup
of order ,
- 2.
any two subgroups of of order are conjugate
, and
- 3.
the number of subgroups of of order is congruent
to modulo and is a factor of .
