Let P be an extraspecial p-group which is neither dihedral of order 8, nor of odd order p^3 and exponent p. Let G be a finite group having P as a Sylow p-subgroup. Then the mod-p cohomology ring of G coincides with that of the normalizer…
In this article, we shall generalize a theorem due to Frobenius in group theory, which asserts that if $p$ is a prime and $p^{r}$ divides the order of a finite group, then the number of subgroups of order $p^{r}$ is $\equiv$ 1(mod $p$).…
In this manuscript, a solution to Problem 18.91(b) in the Kourovka Notebook is given by proving the following theorem. Let $P$ be a Sylow $p$-subgroup of a group $G$ with $|P| = p^n$. Suppose that there is an integer $k$ such that $1 < k <…
Let $G$ be one of the classical Lie groups $\GL_{n+1}(\R)$, $\GL_{n+1}(\C)$, $\oU(p,q+1)$, $\oO(p,q+1)$, $\oO_{n+1}(\C)$, $\SO(p,q+1)$, $\SO_{n+1}(\C)$, and let $G'$ be respectively the subgroup $\GL_{n}(\R)$, $\GL_{n}(\C)$, $\oU(p,q)$,…
We prove the conjugacy of Sylow $2$-subgroups in pseudofinite $\mathfrak{M}_c$ (in particular linear) groups under the assumption that there is at least one finite Sylow $2$-subgroup. We observe the importance of the pseudofiniteness…
A subgroup $A$ of a group~$G$ is said to be {\sl NS-supplemented} in $G$, if there exists a subgroup~$B$ of $G$ such that $G=AB$ and whenever $X$~is a normal subgroup of~$A$ and $p\in \pi(B)$, there exists a Sylow $p$-subgroup~$B_p$ of~$B$…
This note shows there are infinitely many finite groups G, such that every connected Cayley graph on G has a hamiltonian cycle, and G is not solvable. Specifically, for every prime p that is congruent to 1, modulo 30, we show there is a…
The groups of order 64p without a normal sylow p-subgroup are listed, and their automorphism groups are also determined. As a by-product of our original effort to get these groups, we needed to determine the automorphism groups of those…
The character table of a finite group G determines whether |P:P'|=p^2 and whether |P:Z(P)|=p^2, where P is a Sylow p-subgroup of G. To prove the latter, we give a detailed classification of those groups in terms of the generalized Fitting…
One of the aims of this paper is to obtain structural results showing that powerful subgroups are abundant in pro-$p$ groups admitting certain powerful quotients. In particular, we obtain an analogue of Baer's theorem for powerful pro-$p$…
The results of computer computations determining the automorphism groups of the groups of order 32$p$ for $p \geq 3$ are given in several tables. Presentations for the automorphism groups of the groups of order 32, which in many cases…
In this article new cases of the Inverse Galois Problem are established. The main result is that for a fixed integer n, there is a positive density set of primes p such that PSL_2(F_{p^n}) occurs as the Galois group of some finite extension…
Let $t$ be a fixed natural number. A subgroup $H$ of a group $G$ will be called $\mathrm{K}$-$\mathbb{P}_{t}$-subnormal in $G$ if there exists a chain of subgroups $H = H_{0} \leq H_{1} \leq \cdots \leq H_{m-1} \leq H_{m} = G$ such that…
We examine $p$-groups with the property that every non-normal subgroup has a normalizer which is a maximal subgroup. In particular we show that for such a $p$-group $G$, when $p=2$, the center of $G$ has index at most 16 and when $p$ is odd…
In this paper we introduce the concept of an infinite loop mod $n$ and discuss the properties that these objects have. In particular, we show that a real number $\alpha$ is a counterexample to the $p$-adic Littlewood Conjecture if and only…
Building on previous work by Caicedo and the second author, we develop a method that decides the existence of units of finite order in blocks of $\mathbb{Z}_p G$ of defect 1. This allows us to prove that if $p$ is a prime and $G$ is a…
We show that the probability for a finitely generated subgroup of the modular group, of size $n$, to be almost malnormal or non-parabolic, tends to 0 as $n$ tends to infinity -- where the notion of the size of a subgroup is based on a…
We show that if the principal p-block of a finite group G contains exactly 5 irreducible ordinary characters, then a Sylow p-subgroup of G has order 5, 7 or is isomorphic to one of the non-abelian 2-groups of order 8.
For a finite group $G$, let $\sigma(G)$ be the number of subgroups of $G$ and $\sigma_\iota(G)$ the number of isomorphism types of subgroups of $G$. Let $L=L_r(p^e)$ denote a simple group of Lie type, rank $r$, over a field of order $p^e$…
We obtain new results about the representation of almost all residues modulo a prime $p$ by a product of a small integer and also an element of small multiplicative subgroup of $({\mathbb Z}/p{\mathbb Z})^*$. These results are based on some…
