Abstract Given a finite group G with a normal subgroup N, the simple graph $\Gamma _{\textit {G}}( \textit {N} )$ is a graph whose vertices are of the form $|x^G|$ , where $x\in {N\setminus {Z(G)}}$ and $x^G$ is the G-conjugacy class of N containing the element x. Two vertices $|x^G|$ and $|y^G|$ are adjacent if they are not coprime. We prove that, if $\Gamma _G(N)$ is a connected incomplete regular graph, then $N= P \times {A}$ where P is a p-group, for some prime p, $A\leq {Z(G)}$ and $\textbf {Z}(N)\not = N\cap \textbf {Z}(G)$ .

Abstract - Let G􀡳 be a non- abelian finite group. The non-commuting graph ,􀪡is defined as a graph with a vertex set􀡳 − G-Z(G)􀢆in which two vertices x􀢞 and y􀢟 are joined if and only if xy􀢞􀢟 ≠ yx􀢟􀢞.  In this paper, we invest some results on the number of edges set , the degree of avertex of non-commuting graph and the number of conjugacy classes of a finite group. In order that if 􀪡􀡳non-commuting graph of H ≅ non - commuting graph of G􀪡􀡴,H 􀡴 is afinite group, then |G􀡳| = |H􀡴| .

A duality theory for finite abelian hypergroups over fairly general fields is presented, which extends the classical duality for finite abelian groups. In this precise sense the set of conjugacy classes and the set of characters of a finite group are dual as hypergroups.

Let G be a finite group and let N be a normal subgroup of G. Assume that N is the union of ξ(N) distinct conjugacy classes of G. In this paper, we classify solvable groups G in which the set [Formula: see text] has at most three elements. We also compute the set [Formula: see text] in most cases.

AbstractHéthelyi and Külshammer showed that the number of conjugacy classes {k(G)} of any solvable finite group G whose order is divisible by the square of a prime p is at least {(49p+1)/60}. Here an asymptotic generalization of this result is established. It is proved that there exists a constant {c>0} such that, for any finite group G whose order is divisible by the square of a prime p, we have {k(G)\geq cp}.

Let G be a finite group and π an arbitrary set of primes. We investigate the structure of G when the lengths of the conjugacy classes of its π-elements are prime powers. Under this condition, we show that such lengths are either powers of just one prime or exactly {1,qa, rb}, with q and r two distinct primes lying in π and a, b > 0. In the first case, we obtain certain properties of the normal structure of G, and in the second one, we provide a characterisation of the structure of G.

Let G be a finite group. In this paper, we study how certain arithmetical conditions on the conjugacy class lengths of real elements of G influence the structure of G. In particular, a new type of prime graph is introduced and studied. We obtain a series of theorems which generalize some existed results.
