It is a longstanding conjecture that for a finite group $G$, the exponent of the second homology group $H_2(G, \mathbb{Z})$ divides the exponent of $G$. In this paper, we prove this conjecture for $p$-groups of class at most $p$, finite…

Let $G$ be a finite $p$-group of order $p^{n}$ with $|M(G)|=p^{\frac{n(n-1)}{2}-t},$ where $M(G)$ is the Schur multiplier of $G$. Ya.G. Berkovich, X. Zhou, and G. Ellis have determined the structure of $G$ when $t=0,1,2,3$. In this paper,…

We prove that the class of nilpotent by finite, solvable by finite, polycyclic by finite, nilpotent of nilpotency class $n$ and supersolvable groups are closed under the formation of the non-abelian tensor product. We provide necessary and…

Let $G$ be a hyperbolic group that splits as a graph of free groups with cyclic edge groups, and which is not isomorphic to a free product of free and surface groups. We show that $G$ admits an exhausting, nested sequence of finite-index…

Let $G$ be a group, $m\geq2$ and $n\geq1$. We say that $G$ is an $\mathcal{T}(m,n)$-group if for every $m$ subsets $X_1, X_2, \dots, X_m$ of $G$ of cardinality $n$, there exists $i\neq j$ and $x_i \in X_i, x_j \in X_j$ such that…

We define and investigate the property of being `exponent-critical' for a finite group. A finite group is said to be exponent-critical if its exponent is not the least common multiple of the exponents of its proper non-abelian subgroups. We…

In this paper, we study the minimal number of elements of maximal order within a zero-sumfree sequence in a finite Abelian p-group. For this purpose, in the general context of finite Abelian groups, we introduce a new number, for which…

Let w be a multilinear commutator word. We prove that if e is a positive integer and G is a finite group in which any nilpotent subgroup generated by w-values has exponent dividing e then the exponent of the corresponding verbal subgroup…

Let $G$ be a finite $p$-group and $\delta(G)$ denote the number of all non-cyclic subgroups of $G$. In this paper, an upper bound for $\delta(G)$ is obtained. Furthermore, we prove that $\delta(G)\leq \delta(M_p(1, 1, 1) \times…

Let $p$ be a prime number and $\mathbb{Z}_p=\mathbb{Z}/p\mathbb{Z}$. We study finite groups with abelian derived subgroup and exponent $p$ in terms of group extension data and their matrix presentations. We show a one-to-one correspondence…

A longstanding problem attributed to I. Schur says that for a finite group $G$, the exponent of the second homology group $H_2(G, \mathbb{Z})$ divides the exponent of $G$. In this paper, we prove this conjecture for finite nilpotent groups…

Sabatini (2024) defined a subgroup $H$ of $G$ to be an exponential subgroup if $x^{|G:H|} \in H$ for all $x \in G$. Exponential subgroups are a generalization of normal (and subnormal) subgroups: all subnormal subgroups are exponential, but…

Let p be a prime. Every finite group G has a normal series each of whose quotients either is p-soluble or is a direct product of nonabelian simple groups of orders divisible by p. The non-p-soluble length of G is defined as the minimal…

Let $p$ be an odd prime. We describe a method to compute the Schur multiplier of finite $p$-groups $G$ of nilpotency class $2$ such that $G/[G,G]$ is isomorphic to direct product of copies of $\mathbb{Z}_{p^s}$ for $s \in \mathbb{N}$,…

Given a group G denote with exp(G) its exponent, which is the least common multiple of the order of its elements. In this paper we solve the problem of finding the finite simple groups having a proper subgroup with the same exponent. For…

Suppose that $G$ is a finite group such that $\operatorname{SL}(n,q)\subseteq G \subseteq \operatorname{GL}(n,q)$, and that $Z$ is a central subgroup of $G$. Let $T(G/Z)$ be the abelian group of equivalence classes of endotrivial…

Let $q$ be a power of a prime $p$, $G$ be a finite abelian group, where $p$ does not divide $|G|$,and let $n$ be a positive integer. In this paper we find a formula for the number of irreducible representations of $G$ of a given dimension…

Let $G$ be a dp-minimal group; we prove some consequences of several different hypotheses on $G$. First, if $G$ is torsion-free, then it is abelian. Second, if $G$ admits a distal f-generic type, then it is virtually nilpotent; we prove…

For a pair of groups $G, H$ we study pairs of actions $G$ on $H$ and $H$ on $G$ such that these pairs are compatible and non-abelian tensor products $G \otimes H$ are defined.

We study limit models in the class of abelian groups with the subgroup relation and in the class of torsion-free abelian groups with the pure subgroup relation. We show: $\textbf{Theorem}$ (1) If $G$ is a limit model of cardinality…
