Abstract

Let GG be a finite group and N(G)N(G) be the set of conjugacy class sizes of GG. For a prime pp, let Gp|G||_p be the highest pp-power dividing some element of N(G)N(G). and define G=Πpπ(G)Gp|G|| = {\Pi}_{p\in {\pi}(G)}|G||_p. GG is said to be an AA-group if all its Sylow subgroups are abelian. We prove that if GG is an AA-group such that N(G)N(G) contains Gp|G||_p for every pπ(G)p\in {\pi}(G) as well as G|G||, then GG must be abelian. This result gives a positive answer to a question posed by Camina and Camina in 2006.
