Finite $p$-groups of nilpotency class 2 are treated from the perspective of central extensions. Given finite abelian groups $G,A$, we derive an explicit formula for cocycles representing elements of $H^2(G,A)$, compute $H^2(G,A)$, and…
In this paper, we consider covers of finite groups by centralizers of elements. We show that the set of centralizers that are maximal under the partial ordering form a cover of the group. We also show that the set of centralizers that are…
Based on the earlier work of Li (European J. Combin. 1997) and Dobson (Discrete Math. 2008), in this paper we complete the classification of cyclic $m$-DCI-groups and $m$-CI-groups. For a positive integer $m$ such that $m \ge 3$, we show…
Let $A$ be an algebra with a right identity. In this paper, we study $(p, q)-$centralizers of $A$ and show that every $(p, q)-$centralizer of $A$ is a two-sided centralizer. In the case where, $A$ is normed algebra, we also prove that $(p,…
A finite group $G$ is of central type (in the non-classical sense) if it admits a non-degenerate cohomology class $[c]\in H^2(G,\C^*)$ ($G$ acts trivially on $\C^*$). Groups of central type play a fundamental role in the classification of…
The author in $($On the order of Schur multiplier of non-abelian $p$-groups. J. Algebra (2009).322: 4479--4482$)$ showed that for any $p$-group $G$ of order $p^n$ there exists a nonnegative integer $s(G)$ such that the order of Schur…
We classify finite groups in which the centralisers of certain non-central elements are soluble. This includes a full structural description of groups whose non-central element centralisers are all soluble, and a reduction theorem for the…
This papers studies centralizers of an element, $a$, in the nucleus of a non-associative algebra with a special type of valuation. We prove that the centralizer of $a$ is a free module of finite rank over the algebra generated by $a$.
Let $G$ be a finite non abelian group. The centralizer graph of $G$ is a simple undirected graph $\Gamma_{cent}(G)$, whose vertices are the proper centralizers of $G$ and two vertices are adjacent if and only if their cardinalities are…
Let $G$ be a group and $S$ an inverse closed subset of $G\setminus \{1\}$. By a Cayley graph $Cay(G,S)$ we mean the graph whose vertex set is the set of elements of $G$ and two vertices $x$ and $y$ are adjacent if $x^{-1}y\in S$. A group…
We determine all finite subgroups of simple algebraic groups that have irreducible centralizers - that is, centralizers whose connected component does not lie in a parabolic subgroup.
A finite non-abelian group $G$ is called commuting integral if the commuting graph of $G$ is integral. In this paper, we show that a finite group is commuting integral if its central factor is isomorphic to ${\mathbb{Z}}_p \times…
Given a finite group $G$ and positive integers $r$ and $s$, a problem of interest in algebra is determining the minimum cardinality of the product set $AB$, where $A$ and $B$ are subsets of $G$ such that $|A|=r$ and $|B|=s$. This problem…
A finite group $G$ is called an F-group if for every $x, y \in G \setminus Z(G)$, $C(x) \leq C(y)$ implies that $C(x) = C(y)$. On the otherhand, two elements of a group are said to be $z$-equivalent or in the same $z$-class if their…
Let $A$ be an elementary abelian group of order $p^{k}$ with $k\geq 3$ acting on a finite $p'$-group $G$. The following results are proved. If $\gamma_{k-2}(C_{G}(a))$ is nilpotent of class at most $c$ for any $a\in A^{#}$, then…
In this note we describe the finite groups $G$ having $|G|-2$ cyclic subgroups. This partially solves the open problem in the end of \cite{3}.
Let $D$ be a division ring with center $F$, and $G$ an almost subnormal subgroup of $D^*$. In this paper, we show that if $G$ contains a non-abelian locally solvable maximal subgroup, then $D$ must be a cyclic algebra of prime degree over…
We obtain a classification of the finite two-generated cyclic-by-abelian groups of prime-power order. For that we associate to each such group $G$ a list $\inv(G)$ of numerical group invariants which determines the isomorphism type of $G$.…
Given a finite group $G$, let $Cent(G)$ denote the set of distinct centralizers of elements of $G$. The group $G$ is called $n$-centralizer if $|Cent(G)|=n$ and primitive $n$-centralizer if $|Cent(G)|=|Cent(\frac{G}{Z(G)})|=n$. In this…
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…
