Let G be a finite group and F a field. We show that all G-codes over F are abelian if the order of G is less than 24, but for F = ℤ5 and G = S4 there exist non-abelian G-codes over F, answering to an open problem posed in [J. J. Bernal, Á. del Río and J. J. Simón, An intrinsical description of group codes, Des. Codes Cryptogr.51(3) (2009) 289–300]. This problem is related to the decomposability of a group as the product of two abelian subgroups. We consider this problem in the case of p-groups, finding the minimal order for which all p-groups of such order are decomposable. Finally, we study if the fact that all G-codes are abelian remains true when the base field is changed.

A Finite Group

For a finite group G and a subset S of G with 1 ∉ S, the Cayley graph Cay(G, S) is the digraph with vertex set G such that (x, y) is an arc if and only if yx−1 ∈ S. The Cayley graph Cay(G, S) is called a CI-graph if, for any T ⊂ G, whenever Cay (G, S) ≅ Cay(G, T) there is an element a σ ∈ Aut(G) such that Sσ = T. For a positive integer m, G is called an m-DCI-group if all Cayley graphs of G of valency at most m are CI-graphs; G is called a connected m-DCI-group if all connected Cayley graphs of G of valency at most m are CI-graphs. The problem of determining Abelian m-DCI-groups is a long-standing open problem. It is known from previous work that all Abelian m-DCI-groups lie in an explicitly determined class of Abelian groups. First we reduce the problem of determining Abelian m-DCI-groups to the problem of determining whether every subgroup of a member of is a connected m-DCI-group. Then (for a finite group G, letting p be the least prime divisor of |G|,) we completely classify Abelian connected (p + 1)-DCI-groups G, and as a corollary, we completely classify Abelian m-DCI-groups G for m ≤ p + 1. This gives many earlier results when p = 2.

For any fixed prime p and any non-negative integer n there is a 2(pn − 1)-periodic generalized cohomology theory K(n)*, the nth Morava K-theory. Let G be a finite group and BG its classifying space. For some time now it has been conjectured that K(n)*(BG) is concentrated in even dimensions. Standard transfer arguments show that a finite group enjoys this property whenever its p-Sylow subgroup does, so one is reduced to verifying the conjecture for p-groups. It is easy to see that it holds for abelian groups, and it has been proved for some non-abelian groups as well, namely groups of order p3 ([7]) and certain wreath products ([3], [2]). In this note we consider finite (non-abelian) 2-groups with maximal normal cyclic subgroup, i.e. dihedral, semidihedral, quasidihedral and generalized quaternion groups of order a power of two.

AbstractIn this paper we study expansive automorphisms of compact 0-dimensional abelian groups. Our main result is the complete algebraic and topological classification of the transitive expansive automorpisms for which the maximal order of the elements isp2for a primep. This yields a classification of the transitive expansive automorphisms with topological entropy logp2. Finally, we prove a necessary and sufficient condition for an expansive automorphism to be conjugated, topologically and algebraically, to a shift over a finite group.

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.

Our aim in this paper is to prove the general mod ℭ suspension theorem: Suppose that X and Y are CW-complexes,ℭ is a class offinite abelian groups, and that(i) πi(Y) ∈ℭfor all i < n,(ii) H*(X; Z) is finitely generated,(iii) Hi(X;Z) ∈ℭfor all i > k.Then the suspension homomorphismis a(mod ℭ) monomorphism for 2 ≦ r ≦ 2n – k – 2 (when r= 1, ker E is a finite group of order d, where Zd∈ ℭ and is a (mod ℭ) epimorphism for 2 ≦ r ≦ 2n – k – 2The proof is basically the same as the proof of the regular suspension theorem. It depends essentially on (mod ℭ) versions of the Serre exact sequence and of the Whitehead theorem.

AbstractA permutation group G on a finite set Ω is always exposable if whenever G stabilises a switching class of graphs on Ω, G fixes a graph in the switching class. Here we consider the problem: given a finite group G, which permutation representations of G are always exposable? We present solutions to the problem for (i) 2-generator abelian groups, (ii) all abelian groups in semiregular representations. (iii) generalised quaternion groups and (iv) some representations of the symmetric group Sn.

AbstractWe study an impartial game introduced by Anderson and Harary. The game is played by two players who alternately choose previously-unselected elements of a finite group. The first player who builds a generating set from the jointly-selected elements wins. We determine the nim-numbers of this game for finite groups of the form{T\times H}, whereTis a 2-group andHis a group of odd order. This includes all nilpotent and hence abelian groups.

A Finite Group

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].

In [Li and Chen, A new characterization of the simple group [Formula: see text], Sib. Math. J. 53(2) (2012) 213–247.], it is proved that the simple group [Formula: see text] is uniquely determined by the set of orders of its maximal abelian subgroups. Also in [Momen and Khosravi, Groups with the same orders of maximal abelian subgroups as [Formula: see text], Monatsh. Math. 174 (2013) 285–303], the authors proved that if [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is not a Mersenne prime, then every finite group with the same orders of maximal abelian subgroups as [Formula: see text], is isomorphic to [Formula: see text] or an extension of [Formula: see text] by a subgroup of the outer automorphism group of [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we prove that if [Formula: see text] is a finite group with the same orders of maximal abelian subgroups as [Formula: see text], then [Formula: see text] has a unique nonabelian composition factor which is isomorphic to [Formula: see text].
