Let $G$ and $A$ be groups where $A$ acts on $G$ by automorphisms. We say "\textit{the action of $A$ on $G$ is good}" if the equality $% H=[H,B]C_H(B)$ holds for any subgroup $B$ of $A$ and for any $B$-invariant subgroup $H$ of $G$. It is…

Suppose that $A$ is a finite nilpotent group of odd order acting good in the sense of \cite{EGJ} on the group $G$ of odd order. Under some additional assumptions we prove that the Fitting height of $G$ is bounded above by the sum of the…

Let a group $A$ act on the group $G$ coprimely. Suppose that the order of the fixed point subgroup $C_G(A)$ is not divisible by an arbitrary but fixed prime $p$. In the present paper we determine bounds for the $p$-length of the group $G$…

An action of a group $G$ is highly transitive if $G$ acts transitively on $k$-tuples of distinct points for all $k \geq 1$. Many examples of groups with a rich geometric or dynamical action admit highly transitive actions. We prove that if…

Let $A$ and $G$ be finite groups such that $A$ acts coprimely on $G$ by automorphisms. For any fixed prime divisor $p$ of $|G|$, we provide a complete characterization of the structure of a group $G$ in which every maximal $A$-invariant…

An action of a group $G$ on a set $X$ is called ``decent'' if every subgroup of $G$ with a finite orbit in $X$ fixes a point in $X$ and every finitely generated subgroup of $G$ such that every element of the subgroup fixes a point of $X$…

A subgroup $H$ of a finite group $G$ is said to be an $\mathscr{H}C$-subgroup of $G$ if there exists a normal subgroup $T$ of $G$ such that $G=HT$ and $H^g \cap N_T(H)\leq H$ for all $g\in G$. In this paper, we investigate the structure of…

A subgroup $H$ of a group $G$ is said to be a TNI-subgroup if $N_{G}(H)\cap H^g=1$ for any $g\in G\,\backslash \,N_{G}(H).$ Let $A$ be an abelian group acting coprimely on the finite group $G$ by automorphisms in such a way that…

For a finite group $A$ with normal subgroup $G$, a subgroup $U$ of $G$ is an $A$-prime-power-covering subgroup if $U$ meets every $A$-conjugacy-class of elements of $G$ of prime power order. It is conjectured that $|G:U|$ is bounded by some…

Let H_g denote the closed 3-manifold obtained as the connected sum of g copies of S^2 times S^1, with free fundamental group of rank g. We prove that, for a finite group G acting on H_g which induces a faithful action on the fundamental…

Let $A$ be a finite nilpotent group acting fixed point freely on the finite (solvable) group $G$ by automorphisms. It is conjectured that the nilpotent length of $G$ is bounded above by $\ell(A)$, the number of primes dividing the order of…

Let $G$ be a finite group. A proper subgroup $H$ of $G$ is said to be large if the order of $H$ satisfies the bound $|H|^3 \ge |G|$. In this note we determine all the large maximal subgroups of finite simple groups, and we establish an…

Let $G$ and $A$ be objects of a finitely cocomplete homological category $\mathbb C$. We define a notion of an (internal) action of $G$ of $A$ which is functorially equivalent with a point in $\mathbb C$ over $G$, i.e. a split extension in…
