Lemma

Suppose is a transitive on . Then is transitive on iff for .

\begin{proof} Suppose that is transitive on . For any and any , define . Since is transitive, there is such that . So we have and . Therefore, .

Conversely, assume that . For any , there is such that . As can be written as with and , there is , i.e., acts on transitively. \end{proof}

Here is another version of Frattini’s argument from wiki. In fact, it is a special case of ^9wyb80. Let be the set of Sylow subgroups of . Then both and act on by conjugation transitively, and the point stabilizer for a .

Corollary

If and is a Sylow subgroup of , then .

\begin{proof} Let . Since and , the group is also a Sylow -subgroup of . By ^ueqhoc, there is a such that . Then and can be written as . Hence . \end{proof}
