We determine the structure of the finite groups with the property that every cyclic subgroup is the intersection of maximal subgroups, comparing this property with the one where all proper subgroups are intersections of maximal subgroups.

The degree of commutativity of a group $G$ measures the probability of choosing two elements in $G$ which commute. There are many results studying this for finite groups. In [AMV17], this was generalised to infinite groups. In this note, we…

The relative commutativity degree of a subgroup $H$ of a finite group $G$, denoted by $\Pr(H, G)$, is the probability that an element of $G$ commutes with an element of $H$. In this article we obtain some lower and upper bounds for $\Pr(H,…

In this short note, we describe the finite groups $G$ having $|G|-1$ cyclic subgroups. This leads to a nice characterization of the symmetric group $S_3$.

In this paper, we provide new criteria for the solvability and supersolvability of a finite group based on its number of cyclic subgroups. A finite group G is called n-cyclic if it contains n cyclic subgroups. This paper also partially…

The target of this article is to discuss the concept of \textit{commuting probability} of finite groups which, in short, is a probabilistic measure of how abelian our group is. We shall compute the value of commuting probability for many…

A group $G$ is called logically cyclic, if it contains an element $s$ such that every element of $G$ can be defined by a first order formula with parameter $s$. The aim of this paper is to investigate the structure of such groups.

Let X be a projective scheme over a finite field. In this paper, we consider the asymptotic behavior of the number of effective cycles on X with bounded degree as it goes to the infinity. By this estimate, we can define a certain kind of…

Marius T\u{a}rn\u{a}uceanu described the finite groups $G$ having $|G|-1$ cyclic subgroups. We describe the finite groups $G$ having $|G|-\Delta$ cyclic subgroups for $\Delta=2, 3, 4$ and $5$.

In this paper, we discuss a group-theoretical generalization of the well-known Gauss formula involving the functionthat counts the number of automorphisms of a finite group. This gives several characterizations of finite cyclic groups.

Let $K$ be a global field of finite characteristic $p\geq2$, and let $E/K$ be a non-isotrivial elliptic curve. We give an asympotoic formula of the number of places $\nu$ for which the reduction of $E$ at $\nu$ is a cyclic group. Moreover…

The subgroup commutativity degree of a group G has been defined in [6] as the probability that two subgroups of G commute, or equivalently that the product of two subgroups is again a subgroup. Problem 4.3 of [6] asks whether there exist…

We are now witnessing a rapid growth of a new part of group theory which has become known as "statistical group theory". A typical result in this area would say something like ``a random element (or a tuple of elements) of a group G has a…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $\alpha(G)=\frac{|C(G)|}{|G|}$\,, where $C(G)$ denotes the set of cyclic subgroups of $G$. In this short note, we prove that $\alpha(G)\leq\alpha(Z(G))$ and we describe the groups $G$ for which the equality…

We prove an upper bound for the number of cyclic transitive subgroups in a finite permutation group and clarify the structure of the groups for which this bound becomes sharp. We also give an application in the theory of number fields.

The degree of commutativity of a finite group is the probability that two uniformly and randomly chosen elements commute. This notion extends naturally to finitely generated groups $G$: the degree of commutativity $\text{dc}_S(G)$, with…
