For each group G which decomposes into a finitary direct product of free groups of finite rank we construct a regular band B such that the free idempotent generated semigroup over B contains a maximal subgroup isomorphic to G. In…

Let v and w be nontrivial words in two free groups. We prove that, for all sufficiently large finite non-abelian simple groups G, there exist subsets C of v(G) and D of w(G) of size such that every element of G can be realized in at least…

Given an arbitrary group $G$ we construct a semigroup of idempotents (band) $B_G$ with the property that the free idempotent generated semigroup over $B_G$ has a maximal subgroup isomorphic to $G$. If $G$ is finitely presented then $B_G$ is…

A subgroup $A$ of a finite group $G$ is said to be a $CAP$-subgroup of $G$, if for any chief factor $H/K$ of $G$, either $A H= AK$ or $A\cap H = A \cap K$. Let $p$ be a prime, $S$ be a $p$-group and $\mathcal{F}$ be a saturated fusion…

Let G be a finite group and {\sigma} = {{\sigma}_i, i \in I} be a partition of the set of all primes \mathbb{P}. A set \mathcal{H} of subgroups of G with 1 \in \mathcal{H} is said to be a complete Hall {\sigma}-set of G if every…

Given a group-word $w$ and a group $G$, the set of $w$-values in $G$ is denoted by $G_w$ and the verbal subgroup $w(G)$ is the one generated by $G_w$. The word $w$ is concise if $w(G)$ is finite for all groups $G$ in which $G_w$ is finite.…

We show that every finite group $G$ of size at least $3$ has a nilpotent subgroup of class at most $2$ and size at least $|G|^{1/32\log\log|G|}$. This answers a question of Pyber, and is essentially best possible.

M.R.Jones and J.Wiegold in [3] have shown that if $G$ is a finite group with a subgroup $H$ of finite index $n$, then the $n$-th power of Schur multiplier of $G$, $M(G)^n$, is isomorphic to a subgroup of $M(H)$. In this paper we prove a…

We present an explicit structure for the Baer invariant of a finitely generated abelian group with respect to the variety $[\mathfrak{N}_{c_1},\mathfrak{N}_{c_2}]$, for all $c_2\leq c_1\leq 2c_2$. As a consequence we determine necessary and…

In 1968, John Thompson proved that a finite group G is solvable if and only if every 2-generator subgroup of G is solvable. In this paper, we prove that solvability of a finite group G is guaranteed by a seemingly weaker condition: G is…

It is proved that the derived subgroup of a finite group is nilpotent if and only if $|ab|\ge |a||b|$ for all primary commutators $a$ and $b$ of coprime orders.

In this paper, we provide some conditions of (super)-solvability and nilpotency of a finite group $G$ based on its number of subgroups $Sub(G)$. Our results generalize the classification of finite groups with less than $20$ subgroups by…

Let $G$ be a finite simple group of Lie type and let $P$ be a Sylow $2$-subgroup of $G$. In this paper, we prove that for any nontrivial element $x \in G$, there exists $g \in G$ such that $G = \langle P, x^g \rangle$. By combining this…

Let $g$ be an element of a group $G$. For a positive integer $n$, let $E_n(g)$ be the subgroup generated by all commutators $[...[[x,g],g],\dots ,g]$ over $x\in G$, where $g$ is repeated $n$ times. We prove that if $G$ is a profinite group…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $N(G)$ be the set of conjugacy class sizes of $G$. For a prime $p$, let $|G||_p$ be the highest $p$-power dividing some element of $N(G)$. and define $|G|| = {\Pi}_{p\in {\pi}(G)}|G||_p$. $G$ is said to be an…

Let $G$ be a finite group with the property that if $a,b$ are commutators of coprime orders, then $|ab|=|a||b|$. We show that $G'$ is nilpotent.

A subgroup of a finite group is wide if each prime divisor of the group order divides the subgroup order. We obtain the description of finite soluble groups with no wide subgroups. We also prove that a finite soluble group with nilpotent…

If G is a finitely generated powerful pro-p group satisfying a certain law v=1, and if G can be generated by a normal subset T of finite width which satisfies a positive law, we prove that G is nilpotent. Furthermore, the nilpotency class…

We study finite groups $G$ with the property that for any subgroup $M$ maximal in $G$ whose order is divisible by all the prime divisors of $|G|$, $M$ is supersolvable. We show that any nonabelian simple group can occur as a composition…

For a finite group $G$, we study the probability $sp(G)$ that, given two elements $x,y \in G$, the cyclic subgroup $\langle x \rangle$ is subnormal in the subgroup $\langle x, y \rangle$. This can be seen as an intermediate invariant…
