Let $G$ be a permutation group on a set $\Omega$, and $k$ a positive integer. The $k$-closure $G^{(k)}$ of $G$ is the largest subgroup of $\operatorname{Sym}(\Omega)$, with the same as $G$ orbits of componentwise action on $\Omega^k$. We…

We develop an abstract framework for studying the strong form of Malle's conjecture for nilpotent groups $G$ in their regular representation. This framework is then used to prove the strong form of Malle's conjecture for any nilpotent group…

We fix a field $\kk$ of characteristic $p$. For a finite group $G$ denote by $\delta(G)$ and $\sigma(G)$ respectively the minimal number $d$, such that for any finite dimensional representation $V$ of $G$ over $\kk$ and any $v\in…

Considering a finite group $G$, for any element $x\in G$, the solvabilizer of $x$ in $G$ is defined as $Sol_G(x)=\{y \in G : \langle x, y \rangle \text{ is solvable}\}$. In this paper, we introduce $Solv(G)$ as the number of distinct…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $\sigma_1(G)=\frac{1}{|G|}\sum_{H\leq G}\,|H|$. In this note, we prove that if $\sigma_1(G)<\frac{117}{20}$, then $G$ is solvable. Moreover, we have $\sigma_1(G)=\frac{117}{20}$ if and only if $G\cong A_5$.…

Let $\pi$ be a set of primes containing $2$ and an odd prime $p$. It is proved that if a finite group $G$ has a Hall $\pi$-subgroup $H$, then the non-$p$-soluble length of $G$ is bounded above by the generalized Fitting height of $H$. The…

Let $p$ be a prime. A $p$-group $G$ is defined to be semi-extraspecial if for every maximal subgroup $N$ in $Z(G)$ the quotient $G/N$ is a an extraspecial group. In addition, we say that $G$ is ultraspecial if $G$ is semi-extraspecial and…

We prove that if $p$ is an odd prime, $G$ is a solvable group, and the average value of the irreducible characters of $G$ whose degrees are not divisible by $p$ is strictly less than $2(p+1)/(p+3)$, then $G$ is $p$-nilpotent. We show that…

If G is a non-nilpotent group and nil(G) = {g \in G : <g, h> is nilpotent for all h\in G}, the nilpotent graph of G is the graph with set of vertices G-nil(G) in which two distinct vertices are related if they generate a nilpotent subgroup…

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…

A subgroup $H$ of a group $G$ is said to be an $IC\Phi$-subgroup of $G$ if $H \cap [H,G] \le \Phi(H)$. We analyze the structure of a finite group $G$ under the assumption that some given subgroups of $G$ are $IC\Phi$-subgroups of $G$. A new…

Following J.S. Rose, a subgroup H of a group G is said contranormal in G if G = H^G . In a certain sense, contranormal subgroups are antipodes to subnormal subgroups. It is well known that a finite group is nilpotent if and only if it has…
