Finite $p$-groups of nilpotency class 2 are treated from the perspective of central extensions. Given finite abelian groups $G,A$, we derive an explicit formula for cocycles representing elements of $H^2(G,A)$, compute $H^2(G,A)$, and…

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…

Let G < SL(V) be a finite group, V is finite dimensional over a field F, p=char F and S(V) is the symmetric algebra of V. We determine when the subring of G-invariants S(V)^G is a polynomial ring. As a consequence, we classify, if F is…

The well-known Landau's theorem states that, for any positive integer $k$, there are finitely many isomorphism classes of finite groups with exactly $k$ (conjugacy) classes. We study variations of this theorem for $p$-regular classes as…

We give a sufficient condition on a finite $p$-group $G$ of nilpotency class 2 so that $\Aut_c(G) = \Inn(G)$, where $\Aut_c(G)$ and $\Inn(G)$ denote the group of all class preserving automorphisms and inner automorphisms of $G$…

Let $G$ be a group. Let $\mathrm{Perm}(G)$ denote its symmetric group and write $\mathrm{Hol}(G)$ for the normalizer of the subgroup of left translations in $\mathrm{Perm}(G)$. The multiple holomorph $\mathrm{NHol}(G)$ of $G$ is in turn…

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…

We define a family of groups that generalises Thompson's groups $T$ and $G$ and also those of Higman, Stein and Brin. For groups in this family we descrine centralisers of finite subgroups and show, that for a given finite subgroup $Q$,…

We study the finite solvable groups $G$ in which every real element has prime power order. We divide our examination into two parts: the case $\textbf{O}_2(G)>1$ and the case $\textbf{O}_2(G)=1$. Specifically we proved that if…

For a finite group $G$, the vertices of the prime graph $\Gamma(G)$ are the primes that divide $|G|$, and two vertices $p$ and $q$ are connected by an edge if and only if there is an element of order $pq$ in $G$. Prime graphs of solvable…

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.…

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 $…

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 $G\in \mathfrak{Y}$),…

We carry out a study of groups $G$ in which the index of any infinite subgroup is finite. We call them restricted-finite groups and characterize finitely generated not torsion restricted-finite groups. We show that every infinite…

We explore the topological full group [[G]] of an essentially principal etale groupoid G on a Cantor set. When G is minimal, we show that [[G]] (and its certain normal subgroup) is a complete invariant for the isomorphism class of the etale…

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…

For a prime \(p\ge 2\) and a number field K with p-class group of type (p,p) it is shown that the class, coclass, and further invariants of the metabelian Galois group \(G=Gal(F_p^2(K) | K)\) of the second Hilbert p-class field \(F_p^2(K)\)…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $p^k$ be a prime power dividing $|G|$. A subgroup $H$ of $G$ is called to be $\mathcal{M}$-supplemented in $G$ if there exists a subgroup $K$ of $G$ such that $G=HK$ and $H_iK<G$ for every maximal subgroup…

Let $G$ denote the projective special linear group $\text{PSL}(2,q)$, for a prime power $q$. It is shown that a finite 2-subgroup of the group $V(\mathbb{Z}G)$ of augmentation 1 units in the integral group ring $\mathbb{Z}G$ of $G$ is…

We study three restrictions on normalizers or centralizers in finite p-groups, namely: (i) |N_G(H) : H| <= p^k for every H non-normal in G, (ii) |N_G(<g>) : <g>| <= p^k for every <g> non-normal in G, and (iii) |C_G(g) : <g>| <= p^k for…
