For an irreducible character $\chi$ of a finite group $G$, the codegree of $\chi$ is defined as $|G:\ker(\chi)|/\chi(1)$. In this paper, we determine finite nonsolvable groups with exactly three nonlinear irreducible character codegrees,…

Let $G$ be a $p$-group and let $\chi$ be an irreducible character of $G$. The codegree of $\chi$ is given by $|G:\text{ker}(\chi)|/\chi(1)$. This paper investigates the relationship between the nilpotence class of a group and the inclusion…

Let $H$ be a finite quasisimple classical group, i.e. $H$ is perfect and $S:=H/Z(H)$ is a finite simple classical group. We prove in this paper that, excluding the cases when the simple group $S$ has a very exceptional Schur multiplier such…

For a character $\chi$ of a finite group $G$, the number cod$(\chi):=|G:\mathrm{ker}(\chi)|/\chi(1)$ is called the codegree of $\chi$.In this paper, we give a solvability criterion for a finite group $G$ depending on the minimum of the…

Let $G$ be a $p$-group and let $\chi$ be an irreducible character of $G$. The codegree of $\chi$ is given by $|G:\text{ker}(\chi)|/\chi(1)$. Du and Lewis have shown that a $p$-group with exactly three codegrees has nilpotence class at most…

In this paper, we resolve a conjecture of Green and Liebeck [Disc. Math., 343 (8):117119, 2019] on codes in $PGL(2,q)$. To be specific, we show that: if $D$ is a dihedral subgroup of order $2(q+1)$ in $G=PGL(2,q)$, and $A=\{g\in G: g^{q+1}=…

Let $G$ be a $p$-group and let $\chi$ be an irreducible character of $G$. The codegree of $\chi$ is given by $|G:\text{ker}(\chi)|/\chi(1)$. If $G$ is a maximal class $p$-group that is normally monomial or has at most three character…

Let $q$ be a nontrivial odd prime power, and let $n \ge 2$ be a natural number with $(n,q) \ne (2,3)$. We characterize the groups $PSL_n(q)$ and $PSU_n(q)$ by their $2$-fusion systems. This contributes to a programme of Aschbacher aiming at…

We prove that if $G$ is a finite simple group, then all irreducible complex representations of $G$ by be realized over the real numbers if and only if every element of $G$ may be written as a product of two involutions in $G$. This follows…

For an irreducible complex character \(\chi\) of a finite group \(G\), the \emph{codegree} of \(\chi\) is defined as the ratio \(|G : \ker(\chi)| / \chi(1)\), where \(\ker(\chi)\) represents the kernel of \(\chi\). In this paper, we provide…

Let $G$ be a finite group and let $\textrm{cd}(G)$ be the set of all complex irreducible character degrees of $G.$ In this paper, we show that if $\textrm{cd}(G)=\textrm{cd}(H),$ where $H$ is a finite simple exceptional group of Lie type,…

Let $G$ be a finite group. Let ${\rm{cd}}(G)$ be the set of all complex irreducible character degrees of $G.$ In this paper, we will show that if ${\rm{cd}}(G)={\rm{cd}}(H),$ where $H$ is the simple Ree group ${}^2F_4(q^2),q^2\geq 8,$ then…

Let $p$ be a prime number and suppose that every maximal subgroup of a finite group is either $p$-nilpotent or has prime index. Such group need not be $p$-solvable, and we study its structure by proving that only one nonabelian simple group…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $\chi$ be an irreducible character of $G$. The codegree of $\chi$ is defined as $\chi^c(1) =\frac{|G: \ker\chi|}{\chi(1)}$. In a paper by Gao, Wang, and Chen, it was shown that $G$ cannot satisfy the condition…

The prime graph of a finite group $G$ is denoted by $\ga(G)$. Also $G$ is called recognizable by prime graph if and only if each finite group $H$ with $\ga(H)=\ga(G)$, is isomorphic to $G$. In this paper, we classify all finite groups with…

We complete the classification of the finite special linear groups $\SL_n(q)$ which are $(2,3)$-generated, i.e., which are generated by an involution and an element of order $3$. This also gives the classification of the finite simple…

In this paper, we show that projective special linear groups $S:=L_3(q)$ with $q$ less than $100$ are uniquely determined by their orders and degree patterns of their prime graphs. Indeed, we prove that if $G$ is a finite group whose order…
