For a finite group $G,$ we investigate the direct graph $\Gamma(G),$ whose vertices are the non-hypercentral elements of $G$ and where there is an edge $x\mapsto y$ if and only if $[x,_ny]=1$ for some $n \in \mathbb N.$ We prove that…

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…

The independent domination number $i(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the minimum cardinality of a maximal independent set of $G$, also called an $i(G)$-set. The $i$-graph of $G$, denoted $\mathcal{I}(G)$, is the graph whose vertices correspond to the…

T.C. Burness and S.D. Scott \cite{3} classified finite groups $G$ such that the number of prime order subgroups of $G$ is greater than $|G|/2-1$. In this note, we study finite groups $G$ whose subgroup graph contains a vertex of degree…

A homogeneous set of a graph $G$ is a set $X$ of vertices such that $2\le \lvert X\rvert <\lvert V(G)\rvert$ and no vertex in $V(G)-X$ has both a neighbor and a non-neighbor in $X$. A graph is prime if it has no homogeneous set. We present…

The cyclic subgroup graph ${\Gamma(G)}$ of a group $G$ is the simple undirected graph with cyclic subgroups as a vertex set and two distinct vertices $H_1$ and $H_2$ are adjacent if and only if $H_1 \leq H_2$ and there does not exist any…

The power graph $\mathcal{P}(G)$ of a finite group $G$ is the simple graph with vertex set $G$, in which two distinct vertices are adjacent if one of them is a power of the other. For an integer $n\geq 2$, let $C_n$ denote the cyclic group…

A graph is called claw-free if it contains no induced subgraph isomorphic to the complete bipartite graph $K_{1, 3}$. The undirected power graph of a group $G$ has vertices the elements of $G$, with an edge between $g_1$ and $g_2$ if one of…

Let \(G\) be a finite group, and let \(\Delta(G)\) denote the \emph{prime graph} built on the set of degrees of the irreducible complex characters of \(G\). It is well known that, whenever \(\Delta(G)\) is connected, the diameter of…

A finite group is called $\psi$-divisible iff $\psi(H)|\psi(G)$ for any subgroup $H$ of a finite group $G$. Here, $\psi(G)$ is the sum of element orders of $G$. For now, the only known examples of such groups are the cyclic ones of…

We study here the graphs with seven vertices in an effort to classify which of them appear as the prime character degree graphs of finite solvable groups. This classification is complete for the disconnected graphs. Of the 853…

Unigraphs are graphs uniquely determined by their own degree sequence up to isomorphism. There are many subclasses of unigraphs such as threshold graphs, split matrogenic graphs, matroidal graphs, and matrogenic graphs. Unigraphs and these…

The modular decomposition of a graph $G$ is a natural construction to capture key features of $G$ in terms of a labeled tree $(T,t)$ whose vertices are labeled as "series" ($1$), "parallel" ($0$) or "prime". However, full information of $G$…
