Abstract: We prove analogues of results of Glauberman and Thompson for fusion systems. Namely, given a (saturated) fusion system $ \mathcal{F}$ on a finite $ p$-group $ S$, and in the cases where $ p$ is odd or $ \mathcal{F}$ is $ S_4$-free, we show that $ \mathrm{Z}(\mathrm{N}_{\mathcal{F}}(\mathrm{J}(S))) =\mathrm{Z}(\mathcal{F})$ (Glauberman) and that if $ \mathrm{C}_{\mathcal{F}} (\mathrm{Z}(S))=\mathrm{N}_{\mathcal{F}}(\mathrm{J}(S))=\mathcal{F}_S(S)$, then $ \mathcal{F}=\mathcal{F}_S(S)$ (Thompson). As a corollary, we obtain a stronger form of Frobenius' theorem for fusion systems, applicable under the above assumptions and generalizing another result of Thompson.
