Let $G$ be a finite group and $d$ the degree of a complex irreducible character of $G$, then write $|G|=d(d+e)$ where $e$ is a nonnegative integer. We prove that $|G|\leq e^4-e^3$ whenever $e>1$. This bound is best possible and improves on…

Let $q$ be a power of a prime $p$ and let $G$ be a completely reducible subgroup of $\mathrm{GL}(d,q)$. We prove that the number of composition factors of $G$ that have prime order $p$ is at most $(\varepsilon_q d-1)/(p-1)$, where…

A recurring theme in finite group theory is understanding how the structure of a finite group is determined by the arithmetic properties of group invariants. There are results in the literature determining the structure of finite groups…

Given a finite group $G$ of order $n.$ Denote the sum of the inverse-power of element orders in $G$ by $m(G).$ Let $\mathbb{Z}_n$ be the cyclic group of order $n.$ Suppose $G$ is a non-cyclic group of order $n$ then we show that $m(G)\geq…

The codegree of an irreducible character $\chi$ of a finite group $G$ is defined as $|G:\ker\chi|/\chi(1)$. The codegree graph $\Gamma(G)$ of a finite group $G$ is the graph whose vertices are the prime divisors of $|G|$, where two distinct…

The power graph $\mathcal{P}(G)$ of a finite group $G$ is a graph whose vertex set is the group $G$ and distinct elements $x,y\in G$ are adjacent if one is a power of the other, that is, $x$ and $y$ are adjacent if $x\in\langle y\rangle$ or…

Let G be a finitely generated group with a given word metric. The asymptotic density of elements in G that have a particular property P is defined to be the limit, as r goes to infinity, of the proportion of elements in the ball of radius r…

Let us consider the group $G = < x,y \mid x^m = y^n>$ with $m$ and $n$ nonzero integers. In this paper, we study the variety of epresentations $R(G)$ and the character variety $X(G)$ in $SL(2,\C)$ of the group $G$,obtaining by elementary…

For every non-nilpotent finite group $G$, there exists at least one proper subgroup $M$ such that $G$ is the setwise product of a finite number of conjugates of $M$. We define $\gamma_{\text{cp}}\left( G\right) $ to be the smallest number…

In this short note, it is proved that both the number of primitive characters and the number of quasi-primitive characters in a finite group $G$ is divisible by $|G:G'|$, where $G'$ is the derived subgroup of $G$.

A $p$-subgroup $H$ of a finite group $G$ is said to satisfy partial $S$-$\Pi$-property in $G$ if $G$ has a chief series $\Gamma_{G}: 1=G_{0}<G_{1}<\cdots<G_{n}=G$ such that for every $G$-chief factor $G_{i}/G_{i-1}$ $(1\leqslant i\leqslant…

Denote by $m(G)$ the largest size of a minimal generating set of a finite group $G$. We estimate $m(G)$ in terms of $\sum_{p\in \pi(G)}d_p(G),$ where we are denoting by $d_p(G)$ the minimal number of generators of a Sylow $p$-subgroup of…

A countable group is residually finite if every nontrivial element can act nontrivially on a finite set. When a group fails to be residually finite, we might want to measure how drastically it fails - it could be that only finitely many…
