Abstract
Let N be a normal subgroup of a finite group G. Let N ≤ H ≤ G such that N has a complement in H and (|N|, |G: H|) = 1. If N is abelian, a theorem of Gaschütz asserts that N has a complement in G as well. Brandis has asked whether the commutativity of N can be replaced by some weaker property. We prove that N has a complement in G whenever all Sylow subgroups of N are abelian. On the other hand, we construct counterexamples if Z (N) ∩ N ′ ≠ 1. For metabelian groups N, the condition Z (N) ≠ N ′ = 1 implies the existence of complements. Finally, if N is perfect and centerless, then Gaschütz' theorem holds for N if and only if Inn (N) has a complement in Aut (N).
