The energy of a graph , is the sum of all absolute values of the eigen values of the adjacency matrix which is indicated by . An adjacency matrix is a square matrix used to represent of finite graph where the rows and columns consist of 0 or 1-entry depending on the adjacency of the vertices of the graph. The group of even permutations of a finite set is known as an alternating group  . The conjugacy class graph is a graph whose vertices are non-central conjugacy classes of a group , where two vertices are connected if their cardinalities are not coprime. In this paper, the conjugacy class of alternating group  of some order for   and their energy are computed. The Maple2019 software and Groups, Algorithms, and Programming (GAP) are assisted for computations.

For a nonempty subset X of a group G and a positive integer m , the product of X , denoted by Xm ,is the set Xm = That is , Xm is the subset of G formed by considering all possible ordered products of m elements form X. In the symmetric group Sn, the class Cn (n odd positive integer) split into two conjugacy classes in An denoted Cn+ and Cn- . C+ and C- were used for these two parts of Cn. This work we prove that for some odd n ,the class C of 5- cycle in Sn has the property that = An n 7 and C+ has the property that each element of C+ is conjugate to its inverse, the square of each element of it is the element of C-, these results were used to prove that C+ C- = An exceptional of I (I the identity conjugacy class), when n=5+4k , k>=0.

A Finite Group

Let G be a finite group, Sn be the symmetric group on n symbols and An be the corresponding alternating group. The conjugacy classes of the wreath product GSn (or monomial group as it is sometimes known) and the conjugacy classes of GAn have been described by Kerber (see [2] and [3]). The group Sn has a double cover n so that the faithful complex representations of this double cover may be regarded as protective representations of Sn. In Section 2, a particular double cover for GSn is constructed, the faithful complex representations of this group being the subject of a joint article with Peter Hoffman[1]. In the present paper, our task is to determine whether a conjugacy class of GSn corresponds to one or to two conjugacy classes in the double cover of GSn (and similarly for GAn). The main results, Theorems 1 and 2, are stated precisely in Section 2 and proved in Sections 3 and 4 respectively. The case when G = 1 provides classical results of Schur ([5], Satz IV). When G is a cyclic group, Read [4] has determined the conjugacy classes, not just for our particular double cover, but for all possible double covers of GSn.

AbstractThe product of two subsets C, D of a group is defined as . The power Ce is defined inductively by C0 = {1}, Ce = CCe−1 = Ce−1C. It is known that in the alternating group An, n > 4, there is a conjugacy class C such that CC covers An. On the other hand, there is a conjugacy class D such that not only DD≠An, but even De≠An for e<[n/2]. It may be conjectured that as n ← ∞, almost all classes C satisfy C3 = An. In this article, it is shown that as n ← ∞, almost all classes C satisfy C4 = An.

AbstractHydrogen cyanide polymers – heterogeneous solids ranging in color from yellow to orange to brown to black – may be among the organic macromolecules most readily formed within the Solar System. The non-volatile black crust of comet Halley, for example, as well as the extensive orangebrown streaks in the atmosphere of Jupiter, might consist largely of such polymers synthesized from HCN formed by photolysis of methane and ammonia, the color observed depending on the concentration of HCN involved. Laboratory studies of these ubiquitous compounds point to the presence of polyamidine structures synthesized directly from hydrogen cyanide. These would be converted by water to polypeptides which can be further hydrolyzed to α-amino acids. Black polymers and multimers with conjugated ladder structures derived from HCN could also be formed and might well be the source of the many nitrogen heterocycles, adenine included, observed after pyrolysis. The dark brown color arising from the impacts of comet P/Shoemaker-Levy 9 on Jupiter might therefore be mainly caused by the presence of HCN polymers, whether originally present, deposited by the impactor or synthesized directly from HCN. Spectroscopic detection of these predicted macromolecules and their hydrolytic and pyrolytic by-products would strengthen significantly the hypothesis that cyanide polymerization is a preferred pathway for prebiotic and extraterrestrial chemistry.

We have developed a technique to prepare thin single crystal films of graphite for use as supporting films for high resolution electron microscopy. As we showed elsewhere (1), these films are completely noiseless and therefore can be used in the observation of phase objects by CTEM, such as single atoms or molecules as a means for overcoming the difficulties because of the background noise which appears with amorphous carbon supporting films, even though they are prepared so as to be less than 20Å thick. Since the graphite films are thinned by reaction with WO3 crystals under electron beam irradiation in the microscope, some small crystallites of WC or WC2 are inevitably left on the films as by-products. These particles are usually found to be over 10-20Å diameter but very fine particles are also formed on the film and these can serve as good test objects for studying the image formation of phase objects.
