Abstract

A finite group is said to be nn-cyclic if it contains nn cyclic subgroups. For a finite group GG, the ratio of the number of cyclic subgroups to the number of subgroups is known as the cyclicity degree of the group GG and is denoted by cdeg(G)cdeg (G). In this paper, we classify all 1212-cyclic groups. We also prove that the set of cyclicity degrees for all the finite groups is dense in [0,1][0,1], which gives a solution to the problem asked by T\u{a}rn\u{a}uceanu and T\'{o}th in [20] "For every a[0,1]a\in [0, 1], does there exist a sequence (Gn)(G_n) of finite groups such that limncdeg(Gn)=a\lim_{n\to\infty} cdeg(G_n)=a "?
