In this paper, we are concerned with certain generalizations of subnormal and ascendent (transfinitely subnormal) subgroups of a group. A subgroup A of a group G is called f-ascendent in G if there is a well ordered ascending complete series of subgroups of G, where for all α < λ, either Gα ⊲ Gα+1 or [Gα+1: Gα] < ∞. If such a series has finite length, A is called F-subnormal in G.
