AbstractA p-subgroup version of the conjecture of Zassenhaus is proved for some finite solvable groups including solvable groups in which any Sylow p-subgroup is either abelian or generalized quaternion, solvable Frobenius groups, nilpotent-by-nilpotent groups and solvable groups whose orders are not divisible by the fourth power of any prime.

Abstract The integral group ring {\mathbb{Z}G} of a group G has only trivial central units if the only central units of {\mathbb{Z}G} are {\pm z} for z in the center of G. We show that the order of a finite solvable group G with this property can only be divisible by the primes 2, 3, 5 and 7, by linking this to inverse semi-rational groups and extending one result on this class of groups. We also classify the Frobenius groups whose integral group rings have only trivial central units.

Let [Formula: see text] be a finite group and let [Formula: see text] be the holomorph of [Formula: see text]. If [Formula: see text] is a finite nilpotent group or a symmetric group [Formula: see text] of degree [Formula: see text], then the normalizer property holds for [Formula: see text].

Abstract The aim of this article is to explore global and local properties of finite groups whose integral group rings have only trivial central units, so-called cut groups. For such a group, we study actions of Galois groups on its character table and show that the natural actions on the rows and columns are essentially the same; in particular, the number of rational-valued irreducible characters coincides with the number of rational-valued conjugacy classes. Further, we prove a natural criterion for nilpotent groups of class 2 to be cut and give a complete list of simple cut groups. Also, the impact of the cut property on Sylow 3-subgroups is discussed. We also collect substantial data on groups which indicates that the class of cut groups is surprisingly large. Several open problems are included.
