Let $G$ be a finite group and $p$ a fixed prime divisor of $|G|$. Combining the nilpotence, the normality and the order of groups together, we prove that if every maximal subgroup of $G$ is nilpotent or normal or has $p'$-order, then (1)…

A group is called metahamiltonian if all non-abelian subgroups of it are normal. This concept is a natural generation of Hamiltonian groups. In this paper, a complete classification of finite metahamiltonian $p$-groups is given.

Let $A$ and $G$ be finite groups such that $A$ acts coprimely on $G$ by automorphisms. For any fixed prime divisor $p$ of $|G|$, we provide a complete characterization of the structure of a group $G$ in which every maximal $A$-invariant…

The structure of finite and locally finite groups in which every element has prime power order (CP-groups) is well known. In this paper we note that the combination of our earlier results with the available information on the structure of…

For a given m>=1, we consider the finite non-abelian groups G for which |C_G(g):<g>|<=m for every g in G\Z(G). We show that the order of G can be bounded in terms of m and the largest prime divisor of the order of G. Our approach relies on…

We have classified, upto isoclinism, certain groups with a given central factor. As an application, we classify, upto isoclinism, groups having at the most nine element centralizers. Among other results of independent interest, we have…

A (left) Engel sink of an element g of a group G is a subset containing all sufficiently long commutators [...[[x,g],g],...,g], where x ranges over G. We prove that if p is a prime and G a finite group in which, for some positive integer m,…

A proper subgroup $H$ of a group $G$ is said to be: $\Bbb{P}$-subnormal in $G$ if there exists a chain of subgroups $H=H_0 < H_1< ... < H_{n}=G$ such that $|H_{i}:H_{i-1}|$ is a prime for $i=1,...,n$; $\Bbb{P}$-abnormal in $G$ if for every…

Let $A$ and $G$ be finite groups such that $A$ acts coprimely on $G$ by automorphisms. We provide a complete classification of a finite group $G$ in which every maximal $A$-invariant subgroup containing the normalizer of some $A$-invariant…

Let P be an extraspecial p-group which is neither dihedral of order 8, nor of odd order p^3 and exponent p. Let G be a finite group having P as a Sylow p-subgroup. Then the mod-p cohomology ring of G coincides with that of the normalizer…

Given a prime power $p^d$ with $p$ a prime and $d$ a positive integer, we classify the finite groups $G$ with $p^{2d}$ dividing $|G|$ in which all subgroups of order $p^d$ are complemented and the finite groups $G$ having a normal…

A subgroup $H$ of a group $G$ is said to be pronormal in $G$ if $H$ and $H^g$ are conjugate in $\langle H, H^g\rangle$ for every element $g \in G$. In [Sib. Math. J. 2015. Vol. 56, no. 6] we proved that subgroups of odd indeces are…

A finite group $P$ is said to be \emph{primary} if $|P|=p^{a}$ for some prime $p$. We say a primary subgroup $P$ of a finite group $G$ satisfies the \emph{Frobenius normalizer condition} in $G$ if $N_{G}(P)/C_{G}(P)$ is a $p$-group provided…

Following Isaacs (see [Isa08, p. 94]), we call a normal subgroup N of a finite group G large, if $C_G(N) \leq N$, so that N has bounded index in G. Our principal aim here is to establish some general results for systematically producing…

A recurring theme in finite group theory is understanding how the structure of a finite group is determined by the arithmetic properties of group invariants. There are results in the literature determining the structure of finite groups…

The finite groups having an indecomposable polynomial invariant whose degree is at least half of the order of the group are classified. Apart from four sporadic exceptions these are exactly the groups having a cyclic subgroup of index at…

A finite group $G$ is $normally ~monomial$ if all its irreducible characters are induced from linear characters of normal subgroups of $G$. In this paper, we determine all possible irreducible character degree sets of normally monomial…

We describe $\{2,3\}$-groups in which the order of a product of any two elements of orders at most $4$ does not exceed $9$ and the centralizer of every involution is a locally cyclic $2$-subgroup. In particular, we will prove that these…

In this paper, we proved that a group $G$ is supersoluble if and only if for any prime $p\in \pi (G)$ there exists a supersoluble subgroup of index $p$.

We give a detailed description of infinite locally nilpotent groups G such that the index |C_G (x) : <x>| is finite, for every non-normal cyclic subgroup <x> of G. We are also able to extend our analysis to all non-periodic groups…
