We investigated the classical Zassenhaus conjecture for the normalized unit group of the integral group ring of the simple Mathieu group M11. As a consequence, for this group we confirm the conjecture by Kimmerle about prime graphs.

The Gruenberg-Kegel graph of a group is the undirected graph whose vertices are those primes which occur as the order of an element of the group, and distinct vertices $p$, $q$ are joined by an edge whenever the group has an element of…

Let $G$ be an almost simple group with socle $A_n$, the alternating group of degree $n$. We prove that there is a unit of order $pq$ in the integral group ring of $G$ if and only if there is an element of that order in $G$ provided $p$ and…

Let $L$ be one of the finite simple classical groups $L_8(q)$, $U_8(q)$, $O_{10}^+(q)$, $O_{10}^-(q)$ or $O_{12}^+(q)$, with $q$ odd. We prove that every finite group having the same set of element orders as $L$ is an almost simple group…

The famous Goldbach conjecture remains open for nearly three centuries. Recently Goldbach graphs are introduced to relate the problem with the literature of Graph Theory. It is shown that the connectedness of the graphs is equivalent to the…

A graph is split if there is a partition of its vertex set into a clique and an independent set. The present paper is devoted to the splitness of some graphs related to finite simple groups, namely, prime graphs and solvable graphs, and…
