A Finite Group

Let G be a finite group, and let cs(G) be the set of conjugacy class sizes of G. Recalling that an element g of G is called a vanishing element if there exists an irreducible character of G taking the value 0 on g, we consider one particular subset of cs(G), namely, the set vcs(G) whose elements are the conjugacy class sizes of the vanishing elements of G. Motivated by the results inBianchi et al. (2020, J. Group Theory, 23, 79–83), we describe the class of the finite groups G such that vcs(G) consists of a single element under the assumption that G is supersolvable or G has a normal Sylow 2-subgroup (in particular, groups of odd order are covered). As a particular case, we also get a characterization of finite groups having a single vanishing conjugacy class size which is either a prime power or square-free.

Abstract Let {\operatorname{acd}(G)} and {\operatorname{acs}(G)} denote the average irreducible character degree and the average conjugacy class size, respectively, of a finite group G. The object of this paper is to prove that if \operatorname{acd}(G)<2(p+1)/(p+3) , then G=O_{p}(G)\times O_{{p^{\prime}}}(G) , and that if \operatorname{acs}(G)<4p/(p\kern-1.0pt+\kern-1.0pt3) , then G=O_{p}(G)\kern-1.0pt\times\kern-1.0ptO_{{p^{\prime}}}(G) with {O_{p}(G)} abelian, where p is a prime.

Conjugacy Class Size

In this paper we prove that a finite p-solvable group G is solvable if its every conjugacy class size of p′-elements with prime power order equals either 1 or m for a fixed integer m. In particular, G is 2-nilpotent if 4 does not divide every conjugacy class size of 2′-elements with prime power order.
