Let $G$ be a finite group. The group pseudo-algebra of $G$ is defined as the multi-set $C(G)=\{(d,m_G(d))\mid d\in{\rm Cod}(G)\},$ where $m_G(d)$ is the number of irreducible characters of with codegree $d\in {\rm Cod}(G)$. We show that…

Let G be a finitely presented group, and let p be a prime. Then G is 'large' (respectively, 'p-large') if some normal subgroup with finite index (respectively, index a power of p) admits a non-abelian free quotient. This paper provides a…

Let $p$ be a an odd prime and let $G$ be a finite $p$-group with cyclic commutator subgroup $G'$. We prove that the exponent and the abelianization of the centralizer of $G'$ in $G$ are determined by the group algebra of $G$ over any field…

Let p be a prime number. We give the explicit structure of 2- nilpotent multiplier for each finite 2-generator p-group of class two. Moreover, 2-capable groups in that class are characterized.

Let $n$ be a positive integer and $G(n)$ denote the number of non-isomorphic finite groups of order $n$. It is well-known that $G(n) = 1$ if and only if $(n,\phi(n)) = 1$, where $\phi(n)$ and $(a, b)$ denote the Euler's totient function and…

The genus spectrum of a finite group $G$ is a set of integers $g \geq 2$ such that $G$ acts on a closed orientable compact surface $\Sigma_g$ of genus $g$ preserving the orientation. In this paper we complete the study of spectrum sets of…

Let $p$ be a prime number, $G$ be a finite $p$-group and $K$ be a field of characteristic $p$. The Modular Isomorphism Problem (MIP) asks whether the group algebra $KG$ determines the group $G$. Dealing with MIP, we investigated a question…

Let $G$ be a finite group and assume $p$ is a prime dividing the order of $G$. Suppose for any such $p$, that every two abelian $p$-subgroups of $G$ of equal order are conjugate. The structure of such a group $G$ has been settled in this…

Let $G$ be a group. An automorphism of $G$ is called intense if it sends each subgroup of $G$ to a conjugate; the collection of such automorphisms is denoted by $\mathrm{Int}(G)$. In the special case in which $p$ is a prime number and $G$…

We study a class of finite groups $G$ which behave similarly to elementary abelian $p$-groups with $p$ prime, that is, there exists a subgroup $N$ such that all elements of $G\setminus N$ are conjugate or inverse-conjugate under $\Aut(G)$.…

In this paper we give a classification of the rank two p-local finite groups for odd p. This study requires the analisis of the possible saturated fusion systems in terms of the outer automorphism group ant the proper F-radical subgroups.…

In this paper we study the longstanding conjecture of whether there exists a noninner automorphism of order $p$ for a finite non-abelian $p$-group. We prove that if $G$ is a finite non-abelian $p$-group such that $G/Z(G)$ is powerful then…

We study finite p-groups G of coclass upto 4 for which the group Aut_z(G) of all central automorphisms of G is of minimal possible order. As a consequence, we obtain very short and elementary proofs of main results of Sharma and Gumber [7].

Let G be a finite group and p a prime dividing its order. We define new collections of p-subgroups of G. We study the homotopy relations among them and with the standard collections of p-subgroups. We determine their ampleness and sharpness…

An $integral$ of a group $G$ is a group $H$ whose commutator subgroup is isomorphic to $G$. This paper continues the investigation on integrals of groups started in the work arXiv:1803.10179. We study: (1) A sufficient condition for a bound…

Many common finite p-groups admit automorphisms of order coprime to p, and when p is odd, it is reasonably difficult to find finite p-groups whose automorphism group is a p-group. Yet the goal of this paper is to prove that the automorphism…

In this paper, we address the following question: when is a finite $p$-group $G$ self-similar, i.e. when can $G$ be faithfully represented as a self-similar group of automorphisms of the $p$-adic tree? We show that, if $G$ is a self-similar…

We study the groups $G$ with the curious property that there exists an element $k\in G$ and a function $f\colon G\to G$ such that $f(xk)=xf(x)$ holds for all $x\in G$. This property arose from the study of near-rings and input-output…

We consider the capability of $p$ groups of class two and odd prime exponent. We use linear algebra and counting arguments to establish a number of new results. In particular, we settle the 4-generator case, and prove a sufficient condition…

We prove that for any prime number $p$, every finite non-abelian $p$-group $G$ of class 2 has a noninner automorphism of order $p$ leaving either the Frattini subgroup $\Phi(G)$ or $\Omega_1(Z(G))$ elementwise fixed.
