Recently, Schlage-Puchta proved super multiplicity of $p$-deficiency for normal subgroups of $p$-power index. We extend this result to all normal subgroups of finite index. We then use the methods of the proof to show that some groups with…

Let $\mathcal{P}_r$ denote an almost-prime with at most $r$ prime factors, counted according to multiplicity. In this paper, it is proved that, for $0.989<\gamma<1$, there exist infinitely many primes $p$ such that…

We initiate the study of profinite groups of non-negative deficiency. The principal focus of the paper is to show that the existence of a finitely generated normal subgroup of infinite index in a profinite group $G$ of non-negative…

Let $p$ be an odd prime with $p\equiv1\bmod 4$. Then for any odd power $q$ of $p$ and a positive integer $j$ we show that the groups $\text{Sp}_{p^j+1}(q),\text{PSp}_{p^j+1}(q)$, and their Sylow $p$-subgroups are non-$FSZ_{p^j}$.

We give two new constructions of almost difference sets. The first is a generic construction of $(q^{2}(q+1),q(q^{2}-1),q(q^{2}-q-1),q^{2}-1)$ almost difference sets in certain groups of order $q^{2}(q+1)$ ($q$ is an odd prime power) having…

We study almost symmetric semigroups generated by odd integers. If the embedding dimension is four, we characterize when a symmetric semigroup that is not complete intersection or a pseudo-symmetric semigroup is generated by odd integers.…

In this paper we obtain significant bounds for the number of maximal subgroups of a given index of a finite group. These results allow us to give new bounds for the number of random generators needed to generate a finite $d$-generated group…

We provide an algebraic characterization of strong ordered Abelian groups: An ordered Abelian group is strong iff it has bounded regular rank and almost finite dimension. Moreover, we show that any strong ordered Abelian group has finite…

Let $G$ be a nontrivial transitive permutation group on a finite set $\Omega$. An element of $G$ is said to be a derangement if it has no fixed points on $\Omega$. From the orbit counting lemma, it follows that $G$ contains a derangement,…

A finite $p$-group $G$ is called \textit{powerful} if either $p$ is odd and $[G,G]\subseteq G^p$ or $p=2$ and $[G,G]\subseteq G^4$. A {\em{cover}} for a group is a collection of subgroups whose union is equal to the entire group. We will…

This note collects several results on the capability of $p$-groups of class two and prime exponent. Among the new results, we settle the 4-generator case for this class.

A pro-p Cappitt group is a pro-p group G such that the subgroup topologically generated by all non-normal closed subgroups is a proper subgroup of G. In this paper we prove that non-abelian pro-p Cappitt groups whose torsion subgroup is…

In this paper, we focus on the subgroups control $p$-fusion, and we improve the Theorem B of [4] for odd prime. For odd prime, we prove that elementary abelian subgroups of rank at least 2 can control $p$-fusion(see our Theorem B).

Let $\mathbb F_q$ be a finite field with $q$ elements, $G$ a finite cyclic group of order $p^k$ and $p$ is an odd prime with ${\rm gcd}(q,p)=1$. In this article, we determine an explicit expression for the primitive idempotents of $\mathbb…

This paper targets to generalize the notion of Hopfian groups in the commutative case by defining the so-called {\bf relatively Hopfian groups} and {\bf weakly Hopfian groups}, and establishing some their crucial properties and…

Let for a prime $p$, $\mathfrak{X}$ (respectively $\mathfrak{Y}$) be the class of all $p$-biprimitively finite (respectively periodic $p$-conjugatively biprimitively finite) groups and $G\in \mathfrak{X}$ (respectively $G\in \mathfrak{Y}$),…

Recently, the concept of the $p$-numerical semigroup with $p$-symmetric properties has been introduced. When $p=0$, the classical numerical semigroup with symmetric properties is recovered. In this paper, we further study the $p$-numerical…

The author proves that for $0.9985 < \gamma < 1$, there exist infinitely many primes $p$ such that $[p^{1/\gamma}]$ has at most 5 prime factors counted with multiplicity. This gives an improvement upon the previous results of…

Recall that a $p$-group of order $p^ {n} >p^ {3} $ is of maximal class, if its nilpotency class is $n-1$. In this paper, we study the $p$-groups of maximal class. Furthermore, we introduce a subgroup of a $p$-group of maximal class called…

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…
