A \emph{finite cover} of a group $G$ is a finite collection $\mathcal{C}$ of proper subgroups of $G$ with the property that $\bigcup \mathcal{C} = G$. A finite group admits a finite cover if and only if it is noncyclic. More generally, it…

In this note, we prove that for every integer $d\geq 2$ which is not a prime power, there exists a finite solvable group $G$ such that $d\mid |G|$, $\pi(G)=\pi(d)$ and $G$ has no subgroup of order $d$. We also introduce the CLT-degree of a…

Let $G$ be a finite group, define $I(G)=\{x\in G : x^{2}=1\}$, $C(G)=$ set of the cyclic subgroups of $G$, $i(G)=|I(G)|$ and $c(G)=|C(G)|$. In this article, we will classify finite groups with $i(G)=c(G)-r$ for $r=0,1,$ and $2$. We also…

Let $\sigma =\{\sigma_i |i\in I\}$ is some partition of all primes $\mathbb{P}$ and $G$ a finite group. A subgroup $H$ of $G$ is said to be $\sigma$-subnormal in $G$ if there exists a subgroup chain $H=H_0\leq H_1\leq \cdots \leq H_n=G$…

For a finite group $G$ denote by $\gamma(L(G))$ the genus of the subgroup graph of $G.$ We prove that $\gamma(L(G))$ tends to infinity as either the rank of $G$ or the number of prime divisors of $|G|$ tends to infinity.

Let $ G $ be a finite group and $ \chi \in \mathrm{Irr}(G) $. Define $ \mathrm{cv}(G)=\{\chi(g)\mid \chi \in \mathrm{Irr}(G), g\in G \} $, $ \mathrm{cv}(\chi)=\{\chi(g)\mid g\in G \} $ and denote $ \mathrm{dl}(G) $ by the derived length of…

A classification of finite groups in which every 3-maximal subgroup is K-U-subnormal is given.

For $G$ a finite group, let $d_2(G)$ denote the proportion of triples $(x, y, z) \in G^3$ such that $[x, y, z] = 1$. We determine the structure of finite groups $G$ such that $d_2(G)$ is bounded away from zero: if $d_2(G) \geq \epsilon >…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $H\leq G$. The Chermak-Delgado measure of $H$ is defined as the number $|H|\cdot|C_{G}(H)|$. In this paper, we identify finite groups that exhibit the maximum number of Chermak-Delgado measures under some…

In this short note, we describe the finite groups $G$ having $|G|-1$ cyclic subgroups. This leads to a nice characterization of the symmetric group $S_3$.

If V is a finitely generated variety such that the first-order theory of the finite members of V is decidable, we show that V is residually finite, and in fact has a finite bound on the sizes of subdirectly irreducible algebras. This result…

The generalized Fitting height of a finite group $G$ is the least number $h=h^*(G)$ such that $F^*_h(G)=G$, where the $F^*_i(G)$ is the generalized Fitting series: $F^*_1(G)=F^*(G)$ and $F^*_{i+1}(G)$ is the inverse image of…

Given a set $\mathcal{F}$ of finite groups, it is said that a group $G$ is an $\mathcal{F}$-cover if every group in $\mathcal{F}$ is isomorphic to a subgroup of $G$. Moreover, $G$ is a minimum $\mathcal{F}$-cover if there is no…

Let G be a finitely generated linear group over a field of characteristic 0. Suppose that every solvable subgroup of G is polycyclic. Then the claim is made that any solvable subgroup of G is separable. This is proven for G=SL_n(Z).…

Given a finite non-cyclic group $G$, call $\sigma(G)$ the least number of proper subgroups of $G$ needed to cover $G$. In this paper we give lower and upper bounds for $\sigma(G)$ for $G$ a group with a unique minimal normal subgroup $N$…

A subgroup H of a group G is called inert if for each $g\in G$ the index of $H\cap H^g$ in $H$ is finite. We give a classification of soluble-by-finite groups $G$ in which subnormal subgroups are inert in the cases where $G$ has no…

Let $M$ be a maximal subgroup of a finite group $G$ and $K/L$ be a chief factor such that $L\leq M$ while $K\nsubseteq M$. We call the group $M\cap K/L$ a $c$\ns section of $M$. And we define $Sec(M)$ to be the abstract group that is…

In this article we introduce and study a class of finite groups for which the orders of normal subgroups satisfy a certain inequality. It is closely connected to some well-known arithmetic classes of natural numbers.

It has been proved recently by Moreto and Craven that the order of a finite group is bounded in terms of the largest multiplicity of its irreducible character degrees. A conjugacy class version of this result was proved for solvable groups…

We construct two finite groups of size $2^{365}\cdot 3^{105}\cdot 7^{104}$: a solvable group $G$ and a non-solvable group $H$, such that for every integer $n$ the groups have the same number of elements of order $n$. This answers a question…
