Abstract Generators of finite cyclic groups play important role in many cryptographic algorithms like public key ciphers, digital signatures, entity identification and key agreement algorithms. The above kinds of cryptographic algorithms are crucial for all secure communication in computer networks and secure information processing (in particular in mobile services, banking and electronic administration). In the paper, proofs of correctness of two probabilistic algorithms (for finding generators of finite cyclic groups and primitive roots) are given along with assessment of their average time computational complexity.

AbstractWe provide some necessary and some sufficient conditions for the automorphism group of a free product of (freely indecomposable, not infinite cyclic) groups to have Property (FA). The additional sufficient conditions are all met by finite groups, and so this case is fully characterised. Therefore, this paper generalises the work of N. Leder [Serre’s Property FA for automorphism groups of free products, preprint (2018), https://arxiv.org/abs/1810.06287v1]. for finite cyclic groups, as well as resolving the open case of that paper.

The power graph of a group [Formula: see text] is the graph whose vertex set is [Formula: see text] and two distinct vertices are adjacent if one is a power of the other. This paper investigates the minimal separating sets of power graphs of finite groups. For power graphs of finite cyclic groups, certain minimal separating sets are obtained. Consequently, a sharp upper bound for their connectivity is supplied. Further, the components of proper power graphs of [Formula: see text]-groups are studied. In particular, the number of components of that of abelian [Formula: see text]-groups are determined.
