On n-Isoclinic Pairs of Groups

Abstract

In this paper, we extend the notion of n-isoclinism to the class of all pairs of groups (G,M), where M is a normal subgroup of a group G. The details of that notion are studied and some equivalent conditions are given for two pairs of groups to be n-isoclinic. In addition, the concept of subgroup- and quotient-irreducibility for a pair of groups is defined and we derive how to see whether (G,M) has a pair of subgroups or a pair of factor groups n-isoclinic with (G,M).
