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.

Let [Formula: see text] be a finite group and [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] denotes the order of [Formula: see text]. The function [Formula: see text] was introduced by Tărnăuceanu. In [M. Tărnăuceanu, Detecting structural properties of finite groups by the sum of element orders, Israel J. Math. (2020), https://doi.org/10.1007/s11856-020-2033-9 ], some lower bounds for [Formula: see text] are determined such that if [Formula: see text] is greater than each of them, then [Formula: see text] is cyclic, abelian, nilpotent, supersolvable and solvable. Also, an open problem aroused about finite groups [Formula: see text] such that [Formula: see text] is equal to the amount of each lower bound. In this paper, we give an answer to the equality condition which is a partial answer to the open problem posed by Tărnăuceanu. Also, in [M. Baniasad Azad and B. Khosravi, A criterion for p-nilpotency and p-closedness by the sum of element orders, Commun. Algebra (2020), https://doi.org/10.1080/00927872.2020.1788571 ], it is shown that: If [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is a prime number, then [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] is cyclic. As the next result, we show that if [Formula: see text] is not a [Formula: see text]-nilpotent group and [Formula: see text], then [Formula: see text].
