Finite solvable groups are generated by a nilpotent subgroup + K elements?
Is there a constant $K \in \mathbb{N}$ such that for every finite solvable group $G$, there exists a nilpotent subgroup $N \leq G$, and a subset $S \subseteq G$ with $|S| \leq K$, and $\langle N,S\...

A different approach to proving a property of finite solvable groups
Edit: I'd be happy to hear any vague thoughts you might have, however far they may be from a complete solution!
I asked this on math.stackexchange a couple of days ago, but it didn't attract any ...

Element that is in $\phi^{-1}(Z(F (G/F(G)))$
I'm studying an article but I'm not able to understand one of his statements. I have the following hypotheses:
$G$ is a solvable group with trivial center, $J=\phi^{-1}(F(G/F(G)))$ and $J_2=\phi^{-1}(...
