Burnside transfer theorem

ID: burnside-transfer-theorem

The hypothesis makes abelian and makes any two conjugate elements of equal. For the latter assertion, Sylow conjugacy inside the centralizer of the target element adjusts a conjugating element into , where it centralizes . Evaluating group transfer to on an element , each coset cycle contributes a conjugate of raised to the cycle length, hence that same power of . The restriction is consequently , an automorphism of the abelian -group. Transfer is surjective, and its kernel is the required normal p-complement.
