Let $G$ be a finite group and let $N$ be a normal subgroup of $G$. We determine the structure of $N$ when the diameter of the graph associated to the $G$-conjugacy classes contained in $N$ is as large as possible, that is, equal to three.

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

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.

In what follows, character means irreducible complex character.Let G be a finite group and let % be a character of a normal subgroup N. If χ extends to a character of G then χ is stabilised by G, but the converse is false. The aim of this paper is to prove the following theorem which gives a sufficient condition for χ to be extended to a character of G.

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 H be a normal subgroup of a finite group G, and let ζ be an (absolutely) irreducible character of H. In [7], Clifford studied the irreducible characters X of G whose restrictions to H contain ζ as a constituent. First he reduced this question to the same question in the so-called inertial subgroup S of ζ in G, and secondly he described the situation in S in terms of certain projective characters of S/H. In section 8 of [10], Mackey generalized these results to the situation where all the characters concerned are projective.

A character of a finite group G is monomial if it is induced from a linear (degree one) character of a subgroup of G. A group G is an M-group if all its complex irreducible characters (the set Irr(G)) are monomial.In [1], Dade gave an example of an M-group with a normal subgroup which is itself not an M-group. In his group G, the supersolvable residual N is an extra special 2-group and G/N is supersolvable of even order. Moreover, the prime 2 is used in such a way that no analogous construction is possible in the case that |N| or |G:N| is odd. This led Isaacs in [8] and Dade in [2] to consider the effect of certain “oddness“ hypotheses in the study of monomial characters.Our main results are in the same spirit. Although our techniques seem to require a restrictive assumption on the supersolvable residual of the groups we consider, our theorems provide more evidence that under fairly general circumstances normal subgroups of M-groups should be M-groups.

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.

Let $G$ be a finite group. Let $\operatorname{cl}(G)$ be the set of conjugacy classes of $G$ and let $\operatorname{ecl}_{p}(G)$ be the largest integer such that $p^{\operatorname{ecl}_{p}(G)}$ divides $|C|$ for some $C\in \operatorname{cl}(G)$. We prove the following results. If $\operatorname{ecl}_{p}(G)=1$, then $|G:F(G)|_{p}\leq p^{4}$ if $p\geq 3$. Moreover, if $G$ is solvable, then $|G:F(G)|_{p}\leq p^{2}$.

Let [Formula: see text] be a finite group. We say that a conjugacy class of [Formula: see text] in [Formula: see text] is vanishing if there exists some irreducible character [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] such that [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we show that finite groups with at most six vanishing conjugacy classes are solvable or almost simple groups.

Abstract Let G be a finite group and p a prime. Let {\operatorname{cl}(G)} be the set of conjugacy classes of G, and let {\operatorname{ecl}_{p}(G)} be the largest integer such that {p^{\operatorname{ecl}_{p}(G)}} divides {|C|} for some {C\in\operatorname{cl}(G)} . We show that if {p\geq 3} and {\operatorname{ecl}_{p}(G)=1} , then {\lvert G\mskip 1.0mu \mathord{:}\mskip 1.0mu O_{p}(G)\rvert_{p}\leq p^{3}} . This improves the main result of Y. Yang and G. Qian, On p-parts of conjugacy class sizes of finite groups, Bull. Aust. Math. Soc. 97 2018, 3, 406–411.
