In a finite group, a subset is called a Lagrange subset if its size divides the group order, and a factor if it admits a complementary subset. We provide a new and comparatively direct proof of the classification of groups in which every…

In this paper we study prime graphs of finite groups. The prime graph of a finite group $G$, also known as the Gruenberg-Kegel graph, is the graph with vertex set {primes dividing $|G|$} and an edge $p$-$q$ if and only if there exists an…

Recall that a $p$-group of order $p^ {n} >p^ {3} $ is of maximal class, if its nilpotency class is $n-1$. In this paper, we study the $p$-groups of maximal class. Furthermore, we introduce a subgroup of a $p$-group of maximal class called…

Let $p$ be an odd prime, and let $S$ be a $p$-group with a unique elementary abelian subgroup $A$ of index $p$. We classify the simple fusion systems over all such groups $S$ in which $A$ is essential. The resulting list, which depends on…

An equation to compute the dp-rank of any abelian group is given. It is also shown that its dp-rank, or more generally that of any one-based group, agrees with its Vapnik-Chervonenkis density. Furthermore, strong abelian groups are…

It is known that any locally graded group with finitely many derived subgroups of non-normal subgroups is finite-by-abelian. This result is generalized here, by proving that in a locally graded group $G$ the subgroup $\gamma_{k}(G)$ is…

Let $d \geq 2$ be an integer. We conjecture that there is a finitely generated perfect group whose homomorphic images include all finite $d$-generated perfect groups. We prove a special case of this conjecture for the finite perfect groups…

We classify Sylow $p$-subgroups of finite groups whose principal $p$-blocks have precisely six ordinary irreducible characters.

The strong isomorphism classes of extensions of finite groups are parametrized by orbits of a prescribed action on the second cohomology group. We study these orbits in the case of extensions of a finite abelian $p$-group by a cyclic factor…

A finite $p$-group $G$ is said to be $d$-maximal if $d(H)<d(G)$ for every subgroup $H<G$, where $d(G)$ denotes the minimal number of generators of $G$. A similar definition can be formulated when $G$ is acted on by some group $A$. We…

We show that if $G$ is any $p$-group of class at most two and exponent $p$, then there exist groups $G_1$ and $G_2$ of class two and exponent $p$ that contain $G$, neither of which can be expressed as a central product, and with $G_1$…

A group is called metahamiltonian if all non-abelian subgroups of it are normal. This concept is a natural generation of Hamiltonian groups. In this paper, a complete classification of finite metahamiltonian $p$-groups is given.

Recent results of Qu and Tuarnauceanu describe explicitly the finite p-groups which are not elementary abelian and have the property that the number of their subgroups is maximal among p-groups of a given order. We complement these results…

An $integral$ of a group $G$ is a group $H$ whose derived group (commutator subgroup) is isomorphic to $G$. This paper discusses integrals of groups, and in particular questions about which groups have integrals and how big or small those…

Over any partially ordered abelian group whose positive cone is closed in an appropriate sense and has finitely many faces, modules that satisfy a weak finiteness condition admit finite primary decompositions. This conclusion rests on the…

Let $p$ be a prime and $G$ a subgroup of $GL_d(p)$. We define $G$ to be $p$-exceptional if it has order divisible by $p$, but all its orbits on vectors have size coprime to $p$. We obtain a classification of $p$-exceptional linear groups.…

In this article, we introduce the study of a class of finite groups $G$ which admits a subgroup which intersects all non-trivial subgroups of $G$. We also explore a subclass of it consisting of all groups $G$ in which the prime order…

We present a characterization of the finite groups in which all real classes have prime powers size.

We classify finite-dimensional complex Hopf algebras $A$ which are pointed, that is, all of whose irreducible comodules are one-dimensional, and whose group of group-like elements $G(A)$ is abelian such that all prime divisors of the order…

Let for a prime $p$, $\mathfrak{X}$ (respectively $\mathfrak{Y}$) be the class of all $p$-biprimitively finite (respectively periodic $p$-conjugatively biprimitively finite) groups and $G\in \mathfrak{X}$ (respectively $G\in \mathfrak{Y}$),…
