Thompson's theorem stated that a finite group $G$ is solvable if and only if every $2$-generated subgroup of $G$ is solvable. In this paper, we prove some new criteria for both solvability and nilpotency of a finite group using certain…

Let $G$ be a finite soluble group and $G^{(k)}$ the $k$th term of the derived series of $G$. We prove that $G^{(k)}$ is nilpotent if and only if $|ab|=|a||b|$ for any $\delta_k$-values $a,b\in G$ of coprime orders. In the course of the…

Let $ x $ be an element of a finite group $ G $ and denote the order of $ x $ by $ \mathrm{ord}(x) $. We consider a finite group $ G $ such that $ \gcd(\mathrm{ord}(x),\mathrm{ord}(y))\leqslant 2 $ for any two vanishing elements $ x $ and $…

We show that a finitely generated soluble group is virtually nilpotent if and only if the diameter of its finite coset spaces admits a uniform polynomial lower bound in terms of their size. We obtain the same conclusion for certain finitely…

Let Gamma be an S-arithmetic subgroup of a solvable algebraic group G over an algebraic number field F, such that the finite set S contains at least one place that is nonarchimedean. We construct a certain group H, such that if L is any…

Assume $G$ is a solvable group whose elementary abelian sections are all finite. Suppose, further, that $p$ is a prime such that $G$ fails to contain any subgroups isomorphic to $C_{p^\infty}$. We show that if $G$ is nilpotent, then the…

For a finite group $G$, let $LC(G)$ be the subgroup generated by elements $x$ such that, for all $y \in G$ and all integers $n$, the order of $x^n y$ divides the least common multiple of the orders of $x$ and $y$. This subgroup is a…

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 >…

We present a complete list of groups $G$ and fields $F$ for which: (i) the group of normalized units V(FG) of the group algebra FG is locally nilpotent; (ii) the group algebra FG has a finite number of nilpotent elements and V(FG) is an…

We describe finite soluble groups in which every $n$-maximal subgroup is $\mathfrak F$-subnormal.

Let $\mathfrak{H}$ be a Fitting class and $\mathfrak{F}$ a formation. We call a subgroup $\mathcal{N}_{\mathfrak{H},\mathfrak{F}}(G)$ of a finite group $G$ the $\mathfrak{H}$-$\mathfrak{F}$-norm of $G$ if…

In our previous paper, we gave a complete list of the finite non-abelian simple groups whose holomorph contains a solvable regular subgroup. In this paper, we refine our previous work by considering all finite almost simple groups. In…

Let $ H $ be a subgroup of a finite group $ G $. We say that $ H $ satisfies the $ \Pi $-property in $ G $ if for any chief factor $ L / K $ of $ G $, $ |G/K : N_{G/K}(HK/K\cap L/K )| $ is a $ \pi (HK/K\cap L/K) $-number. In this paper, we…

Consider a nonsolvable finite group G, where R(G) represents the solvable radical of G. For any element x in G, the solvabilizer of x in G, denoted by Sol_G(x), is defined as the set of all elements y in G such that the subgroup generated…

A subgroup $H$ is said to be $nc$-supplemented in a group $G$ if there is a subgroup $K\leq G$ such that $HK\unlhd G$ and $H\cap K$ is contained in $H_G$, the core of $H$ in $G$. We characterize the solvability of finite groups $G$ with…

Among compact Hausdorff groups G whose maximal profinite quotient is finitely generated, we characterize those that possess a proper dense normal subgroup. We also prove that the abstract commutator subgroup [H,G] is closed for every closed…

We consider a finite group $G$ with a normal subgroup $N$ so that all elements of $G \setminus N$ have prime power order. We prove that if there is a prime $p$ so that all the elements in $G \setminus N$ have $p$-power order, then either…

Let $\Gamma_G$ denote a graph associated with a group $G$. A compelling question about finite groups asks whether or not a finite group $H$ must be nilpotent provided $\Gamma_H$ is isomorphic to $\Gamma_G$ for a finite nilpotent group $G$.…

We establish the structure of finite groups with $\mathfrak{F}$-subnormal or self-normalizing primary cyclic subgroups in case $\mathfrak{F}$ is a subgroup-closed saturated superradical formation containing all nilpotent groups.

Let K >= 1 be a parameter. A K-approximate group is a finite set A in a (local) group which contains the identity, is symmetric, and such that A^2 is covered by K left translates of A. The main result of this paper is a qualitative…
