The theory of generalized Frattini subgroups of a finite group is continued in this paper. Several equivalent conditions are given for a proper normal subgroup H of a finite group G to be a generalized Frattini subgroup of G. One such condition on H is that K is nilpotent for each normal subgroup K of G such that K/H is nilpotent. From this result, it follows that the weakly hyper-central normal subgroups of a finite non-nilpotent group G are generalized Frattini subgroups of G.Let H be a generalized Frattini subgroup of G and let K be a subnormal subgroup of G which properly contains H. Then H is a generalized Frattini subgroup of K.Let ϕ(G) be the Frattini subgroup of G. Suppose that G/ϕ(G) is nonnilpotent, but every proper subgroup of G/ϕ(G) is nilpotent. Then ϕ(G) is the unique maximal generalized Frattini subgroup of G.

Landau’s theorem on conjugacy classes asserts that there are only finitely many finite groups, up to isomorphism, with exactly [Formula: see text] conjugacy classes for any positive integer [Formula: see text]. We show that, for any positive integers [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], there exist finitely many finite groups [Formula: see text], up to isomorphism, having a normal subgroup [Formula: see text] of index [Formula: see text] which contains exactly [Formula: see text] non-central [Formula: see text]-conjugacy classes. Upper bounds for the orders of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are obtained; we use these bounds to classify all finite groups with normal subgroups having a small index and few [Formula: see text]-classes. We also study the related problems when we consider only the set of [Formula: see text]-classes of prime-power order elements contained in a normal subgroup.

Suppose G is a finite group and C(G) denotes the set of all conjugacy classes of G. The normal graph of G, N(G), is a finite simple graph such that V(N(G)) = C(G). Two conjugacy classes A and B in C(G) are adjacent if and only if there is a proper normal subgroup N such that A U B ? N. The aim of this paper is to study the normal graph of a finite group G. It is proved, among other things, that the groups with identical character table have isomorphic normal graphs and so this new graph associated to a group has good relationship by its group structure. The normal graphs of some classes of finite groups are also obtained and some open questions are posed.

In this work, a non-abelian metabelian group is represented by G while represents conjugacy class graph. Conjugacy class graph of a group is that graph associated with the conjugacy classes of the group. Its vertices are the non-central conjugacy classes of the group, and two distinct vertices are joined by an edge if their cardinalities are not coprime. A group is referred to as metabelian if there exits an abelian normal subgroup in which the factor group is also abelian. It has been proven earlier that 25 non-abelian metabelian groups which have order less than 24, which are considered in this work, exist. In this article, the conjugacy class graphs of non-abelian metabelian groups of order less than 24 are determined as well as examples of some finite groups associated to other graphs are given.

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 $\textbf {Z}(N)\not = N\cap \textbf {Z}(G)$ .

The finite groups in which every irreducible character vanishes on at most three conjugacy classes were characterized [J. Group Theory13 (2010) 799–819]. Dually, we investigate the finite groups whose columns contain a small number of zeros in the character table.

M. Suzuki [3] has proved the following theorem. Let G be a finite group which has an involution t such that C = CG(t) ≅ SL(2, q) and q odd. Then G has an abelian odd order normal subgroup A such that G = CA and C ∩ A = 〈1〉.
