Hall subgroup existence in soluble groups 2026-10-07
Every finite soluble group has a Hall subgroup for each prime set. Induct on the group order using an elementary abelian minimal normal subgroup. In the coprime hard case, lift a minimal normal subgroup of the quotient, choose its Sylow subgroup, and apply the Frattini argument. A proper normalizer reduces the order; a normal Sylow subgroup allows induction in its quotient. This proves existence without assuming an independent complement theorem.
