We study finite groups which possess a strongly p-embedded subgroup for some odd prime p. The main results of the paper will be applied in the ongoing project to classify the simple groups of local characteristic p.

Let $FG$ be the group algebra of a finite $p$-group $G$ over a finite field $F$ of positive characteristic $p$. Let $\cd$ be an involution of the algebra $FG$ which is a linear extension of an anti-automorphism of the group $G$ to $FG$. If…

We study groups having the property that every non-abelian subgroup contains its centralizer. We describe various classes of infinite groups in this class, and address a problem of Berkovich regarding the classification of finite $p$-groups…

We characterize finite groups having a cyclic Sylow p-subgroup in terms of the action of a specific Galois automorphism on the principal p-block for p=2,3. We show that the analog statement for blocks with arbitrary defect group would…

We describe the rings of invariants for the finite orthogonal groups of plus type in odd characteristic acting on the defining representations. We also describe the invariants of the corresponding Sylow subgroups in the defining…

Let G be a finite group with Sylow p-subgroup P. We show that the character table of G determines whether P has maximal nilpotency class and whether P is a minimal non-abelian group. The latter result is obtained from a precise…

Let $p$ be an odd prime. Let $F/k$ be a cyclic extension of degree $p$ and of characteristic different from $p$. The explicit constructions of the non-abelian $p^{3}$-extensions over $k$, are induced by certain elements in…

A group is called metahamiltonian if all non-abelian subgroups of it are normal. This concept is a natural generalization of Hamiltonian groups. In this paper, the properties of finite metahamiltonian $p$-groups are investigated.

In [7], G. Navarro proposed a refinement of the McKay conjecture involving a special class of Galois automorphisms. In [6] this new conjecture was verified by the author for the alternating groups A(n) when p=2. In this note the Navarro…

We consider Hopf Galois structures on a separable field extension $L/K$ of degree $p^n$, for $p$ an odd prime number, $n\geq 3$. For $p > n$, we prove that $L/K$ has at most one abelian type of Hopf Galois structures. For a nonabelian group…

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 $p$ be an odd prime and $S$ a nonabelian finite $p$-group. In [9, 10], they proposed the following conjecture: if $\mathcal{F}$ be a transitive fusion system over a finite $p$-group $S$, then $S$ is either extraspecial of order $p^{3}$…

We prove the conjugacy of Sylow $p$-subgroups of linear pseudofinite groups under the assumption of the existence of a finite Sylow $p$-subgroup. We also give an example of a linear pseudofinite group with non-conjugate Sylow $2$-subgroups.

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…

For an element $x$ of a finite group $T$, the $\mathrm{Aut}(T)$-class of $x$ is the set $\{ x^\sigma\mid \sigma\in \mathrm{Aut}(T)\}$. We prove that the order $|T|$ of a finite nonabelian simple group $T$ is bounded above by a function of…

Presentations for the holomorphs of abelian groups of the form $C_{p^n} \times 1^{m}$ for $p$=2 or an odd prime are given. These presentations extend the results given in Burnside's well-known text on finite groups on the holomorphs for the…

We prove that for any prime $\ell$, any finite group has as many irreducible complex characters of degree prime to $\ell$ as the normalizers of its Sylow $\ell$-subgroups. This equality was conjectured by John McKay. The conjecture was…

We prove the McKay conjecture on characters of odd degree. A major step in the proof is the verification of the inductive McKay condition for groups of Lie type and primes $\ell$ such that a Sylow $\ell$-subgroup or its maximal normal…

In this article, we study the metacyclic p-group codes arising from finite semisimple group algebras. In [CM25], we studied group codes arising from metacyclic groups with order divisible by two distinct odd primes. In the current work, we…

The Alperin-McKay conjecture is a longstanding open conjecture in the representation theory of finite groups. Sp\"ath showed that the Alperin-McKay conjecture holds if the so-called inductive Alperin-McKay (iAM) condition holds for all…
