The degree pattern of a finite group G denoted by D(G) was introduced in [5]. We say that G is k-fold OD-characterizable if there exist exactly k non-isomorphic finite groups having the same order and same degree pattern as G. In the present article, we show that the alternating group A10 and the automorphism group Aut (McL) are 2-fold OD-characterizable, while the automorphism group Aut (J2) is 3-fold OD-characterizable and the symmetric group S10 is 8-fold OD-characterizable. It is worth mentioning that the prime graphs associated to these groups are connected and, in fact, among the groups with this property, they are the first groups which are investigated for OD-characterizability.

We prove that the spectrum of a Cayley graph over a finite group with a normal generating set S containing with every its element s all generators of the cyclic group 〈s〉 is integral. In particular, a Cayley graph of a 2-group generated by a normal set of involutions is integral. We prove that a Cayley graph over the symmetric group of degree n no less than 2 generated by all transpositions is integral. We find the spectrum of a Cayley graph over the alternating group of degree n no less than 4 with a generating set of 3-cycles of the form (k i j) with fixed k, as {−n+1, 1−n+1, 22 −n+1, …, (n−1)2 −n+1}.

The degree pattern of a finite group G was introduced in [10]. We say that G is k-fold OD-characterizable if there exist exactly k non-isomorphic finite groups with the same order and same degree pattern as G. When a group G is 1-fold OD-characterizable, we simply call it OD-characterizable. In recent years, a number of authors attempt to characterize finite groups by their order and degree pattern. In this article, we first show that for the primes p=53, 61, 67, 73, 79, 83, 89, 97, the alternating groups Ap+3 are OD-characterizable, while the symmetric groups Sp+3 are 3-fold OD-characterizable. Next, we show that the automorphism groups Aut (O7(3)) and Aut (S6(3)) are 6-fold OD-characterizable. It is worth mentioning that the prime graphs associated with all these groups are connected.

In this paper, we show that the symmetric group can be characterized by its order and degree pattern. In fact, we get the following theorem: Let G be a finite group such that and . Then G is isomorphisic to one of the almost simple groups: and . Particularly, is 3-fold OD-characterizable.

In this paper, we prove that a finite group G is isomorphic to the alternating group An with n≥5 if and only if they have the same set of the orders of solvable subgroups.

The degree pattern of a finite group G associated with its prime graph has been introduced in [1] and denoted by D(G). The group G is called k-fold OD-characterizable if there exist exactly k non-isomorphic groups H satisfying conditions |G|=|H| and D(G)=D(H).Moreover, a 1-fold OD-characterizable group is simply called an OD-characterizable group. In this paper, we will show that the symmetric group S49 can be characterized by its order and degree pattern. In fact, the symmetric group S49 is 3-fold OD-characterizable

AbstractWe study finite groups G such that the maximum length of an orbit of the natural action of the automorphism group {\mathrm{Aut}(G)} on G is bounded from above by a constant. Our main results are the following: Firstly, a finite group G only admits {\mathrm{Aut}(G)}-orbits of length at most 3 if and only if G is cyclic of one of the orders 1, 2, 3, 4 or 6, or G is the Klein four group or the symmetric group of degree 3. Secondly, there are infinitely many finite (2-)groups G such that the maximum length of an {\mathrm{Aut}(G)}-orbit on G is 8. Thirdly, the order of a d-generated finite group G such that G only admits {\mathrm{Aut}(G)}-orbits of length at most c is explicitly bounded from above in terms of c and d. Fourthly, a finite group G such that all {\mathrm{Aut}(G)}-orbits on G are of length at most 23 is solvable.

AbstractLet G be a finite group of even order coprime to 3. If G admits a fixed-point-free automorphism group isomorphic to the symmetric group on three letters, then we prove that G is soluble.

AbstractLet G be a finite group and let Aut(G) be its automorphism group. Then G is called a k-orbit group if G has k orbits (equivalence classes) under the action of Aut(G). (For g, hG, we have g ~ h if ga = h for some Aut(G).) It is shown that if G is a k-orbit group, then kGp + 1, where p is the least prime dividing the order of G. The 3-orbit groups which are not of prime-power order are classified. It is shown that A5 is the only insoluble 4-orbit group, and a structure theorem is proved about soluble 4-orbit groups.

Let G be a finite group. A subgroup H of G is said to be S-permutable in G if itpermutes with all Sylow subgroups of G. In this note we prove that if P, the Sylowp-subgroup of G (p > 2), has a subgroup D such that 1 <|D|<|P| and all subgroups H of P with |H| = |D| are S-permutable in G, then G′ is p-nilpotent.

Let [Formula: see text] be a finite group. A subgroup [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] is called to be [Formula: see text]-permutable in [Formula: see text] if [Formula: see text] permutes with all Sylow subgroups of [Formula: see text]. A subgroup [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] is said to be [Formula: see text]-supplemented in [Formula: see text] if there exists a subgroup [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] such that [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] is [Formula: see text]-permutable in [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we investigate [Formula: see text]-nilpotency of a finite group. As applications, we give some sufficient and necessary conditions for a finite group belongs to a saturated formation.
