A Finite Group

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

Smooth Action

AbstractFor any finite group G, we impose an algebraic condition, the Gnil-coset condition, and prove that any finite Oliver group G satisfying the Gnil-coset condition has a smooth action on some sphere with isolated fixed points at which the tangent G-modules are not isomorphic to each other. Moreover, we prove that, for any finite non-solvable group G not isomorphic to Aut(A6) or PΣL(2, 27), the Gnil-coset condition holds if and only if rG ≥ 2, where rG is the number of real conjugacy classes of elements of G not of prime power order. As a conclusion, the Laitinen Conjecture holds for any finite non-solvable group not isomorphic to Aut(A6).

A Finite Group

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.

A Finite Group

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.

A Finite Group

Let p be a fixed prime, G a finite group and P a Sylow p-subgroup of G. The main results of this paper are as follows: (1) If gcd (p-1, |G|) = 1 and p2 does not divide |xG| for any p′-element x of prime power order, then G is a solvable p-nilpotent group and a Sylow p-subgroup of G/Op(G) is elementary abelian. (2) Suppose that G is p-solvable. If pp-1 does not divide |xG| for any element x of prime power order, then the p-length of G is at most one. (3) Suppose that G is p-solvable. If pp-1 does not divide χ(1) for any χ ∈ Irr (G), then both the p-length and p′-length of G are at most 2.

Alperin Weight Conjecture

Let G be a finite group and ℓ be any prime dividing [Formula: see text]. The blockwise Alperin weight conjecture states that the number of the irreducible Brauer characters in an ℓ-block B of G equals the number of the G-conjugacy classes of ℓ-weights belonging to B. Recently, this conjecture has been reduced to the simple groups, which means that to prove the blockwise Alperin weight conjecture, it suffices to prove that all non-abelian simple groups satisfy the inductive blockwise Alperin weight condition. In this paper, we verify this inductive condition for the finite simple groups [Formula: see text] and non-defining characteristic, where q is a power of an odd prime.

For a finite group G, let Z(G) denote the center of G and cs*(G) be the set of non-trivial conjugacy class sizes of G. In this paper, we show that if G is a finite group such that for some odd prime power q ? 4, cs*(G) = cs*(PGL2(q)), then either G ? PGL2(q) X Z(G) or G contains a normal subgroup N and a non-trivial element t ? G such that N ? PSL2(q)X Z(G), t2 ? N and G = N. ?t?. This shows that the almost simple groups cannot be determined by their set of conjugacy class sizes (up to an abelian direct factor).
