Abstract

A group G is said to be a V-group if every subnormal subgroup of G has only finitely many conjugates. It is proved here that if G is a group admitting an ascending normal series whose factors have finite rank, and all proper subgroups of G have the V-property, then G itself is a V-group, provided that G belongs to a suitable class of generalized soluble groups, containing in particular all locally (soluble-by-finite) groups. On the other hand, an example shows that there exist periodic metabelian minimal non-V groups.
