Let $G$ be a finite group and $\pi$ be a set of primes. We study finite groups with a large number of conjugacy classes of $\pi$-elements. In particular, we obtain precise lower bounds for this number in terms of the $\pi$-part of the order…

We prove that if a finite group scheme $G$ over a field $k$ has essential dimension one, then it embeds in $PGL_{2/k}$. We use this to give an explicit classification of all infinitesimal group schemes of essential dimension one over any…

Finite $p$-groups with a unique $\mathcal{A}_2$-subgroup are classified up to isomorphism. A problem proposed by Berkovich and Janko is solved.

We find an upper bound for the number of groups of order $n$ up to isomorphism in the variety $G = A_pA_qA_r$, where $p$, $q$ and $r$ are distinct primes. We also find a bound on the orders and on the number of conjugacy classes of…

We study finite p-groups G of coclass upto 4 for which the group Aut_z(G) of all central automorphisms of G is of minimal possible order. As a consequence, we obtain very short and elementary proofs of main results of Sharma and Gumber [7].

Let $G$ be a finite group, and let $\Delta(G)$ be the prime graph built on its set of conjugacy class sizes: this is the (simple undirected) graph whose vertices are the prime numbers dividing some conjugacy class size of $G$, and two…

Let $G$ be a finite $p$-group, where $p$ is a prime number, and $a\in G$. Denote by $\Cl(a)=\{gag^{-1}\mid g\in G\}$ the conjugacy class of $a$ in $G$. Assume that $|\Cl(a)|=p^n$. Then $\Cl(a)\Cl(a^{-1})=\{xy\mid x\in \Cl(a), y\in…

The so--called subgroup commutativity degree $sd(G)$ of a finite group $G$ is the number of permuting subgroups $(H,K) \in \mathrm{L}(G) \times \mathrm{L}(G)$, where $\mathrm{L}(G)$ is the subgroup lattice of $G$, divided by…

Let $G$ be a finite group of order divisible by a prime $p$. The number of $p$-regular and $p'$-regular conjugacy classes of $G$ is at least $2\sqrt{p-1}$. Also, the number of $p$-rational and $p'$-rational irreducible characters of $G$ is…

A subgroup $H$ of a group $G$ is called $\Bbb P$-{\sl subnormal} in $G$ if either $H=G$ or there is a chain of subgroups $H=H_0\subset H_1\subset...\subset H_n=G$ such that $|H_i:H_{i-1}|$ is prime for $1\le i\le n$. In this paper we study…

A conjugacy class $C$ of a finite group $G$ is a sign conjugacy class if every irreducible character of $G$ takes value 0, 1 or -1 on $C$. In this paper we classify the sign conjugacy classes of alternating groups.

Let $G$ be a finite non-abelian group and $\kappa_1(G)$ the number of conjugate classes of minimal non-abelian subgroups of $G$. The structure of $G$ with $\kappa_1(G)=1$ is determined. In the case of $G$ being the $p$-groups, the structure…

It is proved that a profinite group $G$ has fewer than $2^{\aleph_0}$ conjugacy classes of $p$-elements for an odd prime $p$ if and only if its $p$-Sylow subgroups are finite. (Here, by a $p$-element one understands an element that either…
