In this paper we study the finite groups in which every element has prime power order, briefly them EPPO-groups. The classification of EPPO-groups is given including the cases of solvable, non-solvable and simple EPPO-groups. This paper is…

Recently, we have endowed various categories of groups with topologies. The purpose of this paper is to introduce on these categories others topologies which are statistically more suitable to study well-known problems in groups theory. We…

Let $ x $ be an element of a finite group $ G $ and denote the order of $ x $ by $ \mathrm{ord}(x) $. We consider a finite group $ G $ such that $ \gcd(\mathrm{ord}(x),\mathrm{ord}(y))\leqslant 2 $ for any two vanishing elements $ x $ and $…

For every prime $p$, we construct an infinite countable group that contains precisely $p-1$ elements which are not $p$th powers.

In this paper, we count the number of conjugacy and automorphism-conjugacy classes of elements of a ZM-group. The size of a conjugacy class with respect to these two equivalence relations is also counted.

Elements $a,b$ of a semigroup $S$ are said to be \emph{primarily conjugate} or just \emph{p-conjugate}, if there exist $x,y\in S^1$ such that $a=xy$ and $b=yx$. The p-conjugacy relation generalizes conjugacy in groups, but for general…

It is proved that, for a prime $p>2$ and integer $n\geq 1$, finite $p$-groups of nilpotency class $3$ and having only two conjugacy class sizes $1$ and $p^n$ exist if and only if $n$ is even; moreover, for a given even positive integer,…

Let $G$ be a closed highly homogeneous subgroup of $S_{\infty}$ not involving circular orderings. We show that the closure of a conjugacy class from $G$ contains a conjugacy class which is comeagre in it. Furthermore, we show that the…

In a group $G$, elements $a$ and $b$ are conjugate if there exists $g\in G$ such that $g^{-1} ag=b$. This conjugacy relation, which plays an important role in group theory, can be extended in a natural way to inverse semigroups: for…

Groups with a large $p$-subgroup, $p$ a prime, include almost all of the groups of Lie type in characteristic $p$ and so the study of such groups adds to our understanding of the finite simple groups. In this article we study a special…

The structure of groups for which certain sets of commutator subgroups are finite is investigated, with a particular focus on the relationship between these groups and those with finite derived subgroup.

This work presents the conjugacy classes of finite abelian subgroups of the Cremona group of the plane. Using a well-known theory, this problem amounts to the study of automorphism groups of some Del Pezzo surfaces and conic bundles. We…

In this paper we introduce and study the concept of normality degree of a finite group $G$. This quantity measures the probability of a random subgroup of $G$ to be normal. Explicit formulas are obtained for some particular classes of…

For a prime $p$, we say that a conjugacy class of a finite group $G$ is $p$-vanishing if every irreducible character of $G$ of degree divisible by $p$ takes value 0 on that conjugacy class. In this paper we completely classify 2-vanishing…

We classify, up to conjugacy, the finite subgroups of PGL(2,K) of order prime to char(K).

Let $G$ be a finite group of order divisible by a prime $p$ and let $P\in\Syl_p(G)$. We prove a recent conjecture by Hung stating that $|\Irr_{p'}(G)|\geq \frac{\exp(P/P')-1}{p-1}+2\sqrt{p-1}-1.$ Let $a\geq 2$ be an integer and suppose that…

We consider the group property of being icc. We give several examples of icc groups and study its stability under usual algebraic constructions.

We prove a convolution formula for the conjugacy classes in symmetric groups conjectured by the second author. A combinatorial interpretation of coefficients is provided. As a main tool we introduce new semigroup of partial permutations. We…

In this paper, we investigate the structure of finite group G by assuming that the intersections between p-sylowizers of some p-subgroups of G and $O^p(G)$ are S-permutable in G. We obtain some criterions for p-nilpotency of a finite group.

Let G be a group. Two elements x and y in G are said to be in the same z-class if their centralizers in G are conjugate within G. In this paper, we prove that the number of z-classes in the group of upper triangular matrices is infinite…
