One part of Sylow's famous theorem in group theory states that the number of Sylow p-subgroups of a finite group is always congruent to 1 modulo p. Conversely, Marshall Hall has shown that not every positive integer $n\equiv 1\pmod{p}$…

A finite group $G$ is called $\psi$-divisible if $\psi(H)|\psi(G)$ for any subgroup $H$ of $G$, where $\psi(H)$ and $\psi(G)$ are the sum of element orders of $H$ and $G$, respectively. In this paper, we extend a result provided in [10], by…

In this note we introduce the class of $\mathcal H$-groups (or Hall groups) related to the class of $\mathcal B$-groups defined by Ph. Hall in 1950's. Establishing some basic properties of Hall groups we use them to obtain results…

A profinite group G is just infinite if every non-trivial closed normal subgroup of G is of finite index, and hereditarily just infinite if every open subgroup is just infinite. Hereditarily just infinite profinite groups need not be…

We give a simple algorithm that enables us to determine whether a subgroup of finite index of the Hecke group is normal.

P. Hall constructed a universal countable locally finite group U, determined up to isomorphism by two properties: every finite group C is a subgroup of U, and every embedding of C into U is conjugate in U. Every countable locally finite…

Let $G$ be a group and $H \le K \le G$. We say that $H$ is $c$-embedded in $G$ with respect to $K$ if there is a subgroup $B$ of $G$ such that $G = HB$ and $H \cap B \le Z(K)$. Given a finite group $G$, a prime number $p$ and a Sylow…

The main result of this article is a refinement of the well-known subgroup separability results of Hall and Scott for free and surface groups. We show that for any finitely generated subgroup, there is a finite dimensional representation of…

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…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $\sigma_1(G)=\frac{1}{|G|}\sum_{H\leq G}\,|H|$. In this paper, we prove that if $\sigma_1(G)<2+\frac{11}{|G|}$\,, then $G$ is supersolvable. In particular, some new characterizations of the well-known groups…

Let $\pi_1(C)$ be the fundamental group of a smooth irreducible affine curve $C$ over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic. It is shown that given an embedding problem for $\pi_1(C)$ there exist an open index $p$ normal…

We show that finite quasisimple groups of Lie type in characteristic $p$ with an irreducible representation of prime degree $r$ over a finite field of characteristic $p$ have orders bounded above by a function of $r$, independent of $p$. We…

Let $R$ be a finite unital commutative ring. We introduce a new class of finite groups, which we call hereditary groups over $R$. Our main result states that if $G$ is a hereditary group over $R$ then a unital algebra isomorphism between…

A group $G$ is called hereditarily non-topologizable if, for every $H\le G$, no quotient of $H$ admits a non-discrete Hausdorff topology. We construct first examples of infinite hereditarily non-topologizable groups. This allows us to prove…

Let $\sigma=\{\pi_i | i\in I$ and $\pi_i\cap\pi_j=\emptyset$ for all $i\neq j\}$ be a partition of the set of all primes into mutually disjoint subsets. In this paper we considered subgroups that permutes with given sets of $\pi_i$-maximal…

Given a map with underlying graph $\mathcal{G}$, if the set of prime divisors of $|V(\mathcal{G}|$ is denoted by $\pi$, then we call the map a {\it $\pi$-map}. An orientably-regular (resp. A regular ) $\pi$-map is called {\it solvable} if…

We describe finite soluble groups in which every $n$-maximal subgroup is $\mathfrak F$-subnormal.

The existence of invariant transversals for a normal subgroup $H$ in a group $G$ is investigated. This yields counterexamples to a conjecture in case $H$ is abelian and $G$ is finite.

In this paper, we establish the theory of $\sigma$-solvable hypergroups, study some properties of $\sigma$-solvable hypergroups and give similar results of Hall's Theorem in $\sigma$-solvable hypergroups.

Let $G$ be a residually finite, good group of finite virtual cohomological dimension. We prove that the natural monomorphism $G\hookrightarrow\hat{G}$ induces a bijective correspondence between conjugacy classes of finite $p$-subgroups of…
