The A-Möbius function of a finite group

open access: yesArs Mathematica Contemporanea, 2023
The Möbius function of the subgroup lettice of a finite group $G$ has been introduced by Hall and applied to investigate several different questions. We propose the following generalization. Let $A$ be a subgroup of the automorphism group $\rm{Aut}(G)$ of a finite group $G$ and denote by $\mathcal C_A(G)$ the set of $A$-conjugacy classes of subgroups ...
