Let $A$ and $G$ be finite groups such that $A$ acts coprimely on $G$ by automorphisms, we first prove some results on the solvability of finite groups in which some maximal $A$-invariant subgroups have indices a prime or the square of a…

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 $G$ be a finite group and $p$ a prime. We establish an upper bound for the derived length of a Sylow $p$-subgroup of $G$ in terms of the number of irreducible characters of $G$ whose degrees are divisible by $p$. We also prove that if…

For a finite group $G$ we investigate the difference between the maximum size MaxDim$(G)$ of an "independent" family of maximal subgroups of $G$ and maximum size $m(G)$ of an irredundant sequence of generators of $G$. We prove that…

We amalgamate finite 2-nilpotent groups G of exponent p > 2, where G' is contained in a subgroup of the center, generated by n elements. We get Fraisse limits D(n) with superstable elementary theories of SU-rank 1. D(1) is Felgner's extra…

Let $p$ be a prime and let $G$ be a finite group such that the smallest prime that divides $|G|$ is $p$. We find sharp bounds, depending on $p$, for the commuting probability and the average character degree to guarantee that $G$ is…

We determine the structure of the finite non-solvable groups of order divisible by $3$ all whose maximal subgroups of order divisible by $3$ are supersolvable. Precisely, we demonstrate that if $G$ is a finite non-solvable group satisfying…

In this paper we describe some properties of groups $G$ that contain a solvable subgroup of finite prime-power index (Theorem 1 and Corollaries 2--3). We prove that if $G$ is a non-solvable group that contains a solvable subgroup of index…

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,…

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…

Let $G$ be a finite simple group of Lie type and let $P$ be a Sylow $2$-subgroup of $G$. In this paper, we prove that for any nontrivial element $x \in G$, there exists $g \in G$ such that $G = \langle P, x^g \rangle$. By combining this…

Let $q$ be a prime and $A$ a finite $q$-group of exponent $q$ acting by automorphisms on a finite $q'$-group $G$. Assume that $A$ has order at least $q^3$. We show that if $\gamma_{\infty} (C_{G}(a))$ has order at most $m$ for any $a \in…

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…

In this paper, we show that each finite group $G$ containing at most $p^2$ Sylow $p$-subgroups for each odd prime number $p$, is a solvable group. In fact, we give a positive answer to the conjecture in \cite{Rob}.

Let G be a finite group and let k be a positive integer. We examine the relationship between structural properties of G and the number of elements of G that are not kth powers in G. In particular, we examine a bound on |G| given by Lucido…

In this paper we investigate the following general problem. Let $G$ be a group and let $i(G)$ be a property of $G$. Is there an integer $d$ such that $G$ contains a $d$-generated subgroup $H$ with $i(H)=i(G)$? Here we consider the case…

Let $p$ be a prime and $G$ a pro-$p$ group of finite rank that admits a faithful, self-similar action on the $p$-ary rooted tree. We prove that if the set $\{g\in G \ | \ g^{p^n}=1\}$ is a nontrivial subgroup for some $n$, then $G$ is a…

The power graph $\mathcal{P}(G)$ of a group $G$ is the simple graph with vertex set $G$ and two vertices are adjacent whenever one of them is a positive power of the other. In this paper, for a finite noncyclic nilpotent group $G$, we study…

Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a class of finite groups closed for subgroups, quotients groups and extensions. Let $\Gamma$ be a finite simplicial graph and $G = G_{\Gamma}$ be the corresponding pro-$\mathcal C$ RAAG. We show that if $N$ is a…

Let $\pi$ be a set of primes containing $2$ and an odd prime $p$. It is proved that if a finite group $G$ has a Hall $\pi$-subgroup $H$, then the non-$p$-soluble length of $G$ is bounded above by the generalized Fitting height of $H$. The…
