Abstract

Let SG* be the Brown poset of nonidentity p-subgroups of the finite group G ordered by inclusion. Results of Bouc and Quillen show that SG* is homotopy equivalent to its subposets SG*+rad of nonidentity radical p-subgroups and SG*+eab of nonidentity elementary abelian p-subgroups. In this note we extend these results for the Brown poset of G to other categories of p-subgroups of G, including the p-fusion system of G.
