We know that the property of being a Sylow subgroup is transitive (a Sylow subgroup of a Sylow subgroup is Sylow). Thus, if the property of being Sylow satisfies the transfer condition, we have that the property of being a Sylow subgroup is intersection-closed, by the general fact [[Transitive and transfer condition implies intersection-closed]].

On the other hand, an intersection of Sylow subgroups need not be Sylow.

Statement

It is possible to have a finite group G, a Sylow subgroup H, and a subgroup K of G such that HK is not a Sylow subgroup of K.

Hands-on proof

Property-theoretic proof

We know that the property of being a Sylow subgroup is transitive (a Sylow subgroup of a Sylow subgroup is Sylow). Thus, if the property of being Sylow satisfies the transfer condition, we have that the property of being a Sylow subgroup is intersection-closed, by the general fact Transitive and transfer condition implies finite-intersection-closed.

On the other hand, an intersection of Sylow subgroups need not be Sylow.
