Abstract

In this paper, we establish sharp thresholds on the independence number of the comaximal subgroup graph Γ(G)\Gamma(G) that guarantee solvability, supersolvability, and nilpotency of the underlying group GG. Specifically: \begin{itemize} \item For solvability, we prove that any group GG with independence number α(Γ(G))51\alpha(\Gamma(G))\leq 51 must be solvable, and show that the alternating group A5A_5 is uniquely determined by its graph. \item For supersolvability, we show that α(Γ(G))14\alpha(\Gamma(G))\leq 14 implies GG is supersolvable, except for three explicit exceptions. \item For nilpotency, we prove that α(Γ(G))6\alpha(\Gamma(G))\leq 6 ensures nilpotency, except for five groups. \end{itemize} Finally, we conclude with some open issues involving domination parameters.
