Abstract

The triple factorization of a group G has been studied recently showing that G=ABA for some proper subgroups A and B of G, the definition of rank-two geometry and rank-two coset geometry which is closely related to the triple factorization was defined and calculated for abelian groups. In this paper we study two infinite classes of non-abelian finite groups D2n and PSL(2,2n) for their triple factorizations by finding certain suitable maximal subgroups, which these subgroups are define with original generators of these groups. The related rank-two coset geometries motivate us to define the rank-two coset geometry graphs which could be of intrinsic tool on the study of triple factorization of non-abelian groups.
