For a finite group [Formula: see text] denote by [Formula: see text] the genus of the subgroup graph of [Formula: see text] We prove that [Formula: see text] tends to infinity as either the rank of [Formula: see text] or the number of prime divisors of [Formula: see text] tends to infinity.

Let [Formula: see text] be a finite group, whose order has [Formula: see text] prime divisors. In this paper, we prove that if [Formula: see text] has a [Formula: see text]-complement for [Formula: see text] prime divisors [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] has no section isomorphic to [Formula: see text]. Then [Formula: see text] is solvable, which generalizes a theorem of Hall.

The power graph [Formula: see text] of a finite group [Formula: see text] is the undirected simple graph whose vertex set is [Formula: see text], in which two distinct vertices are adjacent if one of them is an integral power of the other. For an integer [Formula: see text], let [Formula: see text] denote the cyclic group of order [Formula: see text] and let [Formula: see text] be the number of distinct prime divisors of [Formula: see text]. The minimum degree [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] is known for [Formula: see text], see [R. P. Panda and K. V. Krishna, On the minimum degree, edge-connectivity and connectivity of power graphs of finite groups, Comm. Algebra 46(7) (2018) 3182–3197]. For [Formula: see text], under certain conditions involving the prime divisors of [Formula: see text], we identify at most [Formula: see text] vertices such that [Formula: see text] is equal to the degree of at least one of these vertices. If [Formula: see text], or that [Formula: see text] is a product of distinct primes, we are able to identify two such vertices without any condition on the prime divisors of [Formula: see text].

AbstractA complete Sylow sequence, 𝒫=P1,…,Pm, of a finite group G is a sequence of m Sylow pi-subgroups of G, one for each pi, where p1,…,pm are all of the distinct prime divisors of |G|. A product of the form P1⋯Pm is called a complete Sylow product of G. We prove that the solvable radical of G equals the intersection of all complete Sylow products of G if, for every composition factor S of G, and for every ordering of the prime divisors of |S|, there exist a complete Sylow sequence 𝒫 of S, and g∈S such that g is uniquely factorizable in 𝒫 . This generalizes our results in Kaplan and Levy [‘The solvable radical of Sylow factorizable groups’, Arch. Math.85(6) (2005), 490–496].

For a finite group [Formula: see text], the symbol [Formula: see text] denotes the set of the prime divisors of [Formula: see text] denotes the number of conjugacy classes of maximal subgroups of [Formula: see text]. Let [Formula: see text] denote the number of conjugacy classes of non-abelian subgroups of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] denote the number of conjugacy classes of all non-normal non-abelian subgroups of [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we consider the finite groups with [Formula: see text] or [Formula: see text]. We show these groups are solvable.

Let G be a finite group. The prime graph Γ(G) of G is defined as follows: The set of vertices of Γ(G) is the set of prime divisors of |G| and two distinct vertices p and p' are connected in Γ(G), whenever G has an element of order pp'. A non-abelian simple group P is called recognizable by prime graph if for any finite group G with Γ(G)=Γ(P), G has a composition factor isomorphic to P. In [4] proved finite simple groups 2Dn(q), where n ≠ 4k are quasirecognizable by prime graph. Now in this paper we discuss the quasirecognizability by prime graph of the simple groups 2D2k(q), where k ≥ 9 and q is a prime power less than 105.

A Schmidt [Formula: see text]-group is a non-nilpotent [Formula: see text]-group whose proper subgroups are nilpotent and which has the normal Sylow [Formula: see text]-subgroup. The [Formula: see text]-critical graph [Formula: see text] of a finite group [Formula: see text] is a directed graph on the vertex set [Formula: see text] of all prime divisors of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] is an edge of [Formula: see text] if and only if [Formula: see text] has a Schmidt [Formula: see text]-subgroup. The bounds of the nilpotent length of a soluble group are obtained in terms of its [Formula: see text]-critical graph. The structure of a soluble group with given [Formula: see text]-critical graph is obtained in terms of commutators. The connections between [Formula: see text]-critical and other graphs (Sylow, soluble, prime, commuting) of finite groups are found.

LetGbe a group. Denote byπ(G)the set of prime divisors of|G|. LetGK(G)be the graph with vertex setπ(G)such that two primespandqinπ(G)are joined by an edge ifGhas an element of orderp·q. We sets(G)to denote the number of connected components of the prime graphGK(G). Denote byN(G)the set of nonidentity orders of conjugacy classes of elements inG. Alavi and Daneshkhah proved that the groups,Anwheren=p,p+1,p+2withs(G)≥2, are characterized byN(G). As a development of these topics, we will prove that ifGis a finite group with trivial center andN(G)=N(Ap+3)withp+2composite, thenGis isomorphic toAp+3.

For a positive integer n, we denote by π(n) the set of all prime divisors of n. For a finite group G, the set [Formula: see text] is called the prime spectrum of G. Let [Formula: see text] mean that M is a maximal subgroup of G. We put [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. In this notice, using well-known number-theoretical results, we present a number of examples to show that both K(G) and k(G) are unbounded in general. This implies that the problem “Are k(G) and K(G) bounded by some constant k?”, raised by Monakhov and Skiba in 2016, is solved in the negative.

Let G be a finite group of order g having exactly k conjugate classes. Let π(G) denote the set of prime divisors of g. K. A. Hirsch [4] has shown that By the same methods we prove g ≡ k modulo G.C.D. {(p–1)2 p ∈ π(G)} and that if G is a p-group, g = h modulo (p−1)(p2−1). It follows that k has the form (n+r(p−1)) (p2−1)+pe where r and n are integers ≧ 0, p is a prime, e is 0 or 1, and g = p2n+e. This has been established using representation theory by Philip Hall [3] (see also [5]). If then simple examples show (for 6 ∤ g obviously) that g ≡ k modulo σ or even σ/2 is not generally true.

For a finite group G, let γ(G) denote the number of conjugacy classes of all non-nilpotent subgroups of G, and let π(G) denote the set of the prime divisors of |G|. In this paper, we establish lower bounds on γ(G). In fact, we show that if G is a finite solvable group, then γ(G) = 0 or γ(G) ≥ 2|π(G)|-2, and if G is non-solvable, then γ(G) ≥ |π(G)| + 1. Both lower bounds are best possible.
