We study systematically groups whose marked finite quotients form a recursive set. We give several definitions, and prove basic properties of this class of groups, and in particular emphasize the link between the growth of the depth…

Let D be an infinite division ring, n a natural number and N a subnormal subgroup of GLn(D) such that n = 1 or the center of D contains at least five elements. This paper contains two main results. In the first one we prove that each…

Let $G$ be a finite almost simple group. It is well known that $G$ can be generated by 3 elements, and in previous work we showed that 6 generators suffice for all maximal subgroups of $G$. In this paper we consider subgroups at the next…

Given a finite group $G,$ we denote by $\Delta(G)$ the graph whose vertices are the proper subgroups of $G$ and in which two vertices $H$ and $K$ are joined by an edge if and only if $G=\langle H,K\rangle.$ We prove that if there exists a…

Let $w=w(x_1,...,x_n)$ be a word, i.e. an element of the free group $F = \langle x_1,...,x_n \rangle$. The verbal subgroup $w(G)$ of a group $G$ is the subgroup generated by the set $\{ w(x_1,...,x_n) : x_1,...,x_n \in G \}$ of all…

Pro-$p$ groups of finite powerful class are studied. We prove that these are $p$-adic analytic, and further describe their structure when their powerful class is small. It is also shown that there are only finitely many finite $p$-groups of…

We extend a classical theorem of P. Hall that claims that if the index of every maximal subgroup of a finite group $G$ is a prime or the square of a prime, then $G$ is solvable. Precisely, we prove that if one allows, in addition, the…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $S$ a subset of $G$. Then $S$ is product-free if $S \cap SS = \emptyset$, and complete if $G^{\ast} \subseteq S \cup SS$. A product-free set is locally maximal if it is not contained in a strictly larger…

We find an upper bound for the number of groups of order $n$ up to isomorphism in the variety $G = A_pA_qA_r$, where $p$, $q$ and $r$ are distinct primes. We also find a bound on the orders and on the number of conjugacy classes of…

This work continues the study of the properties of finitely constrained groups of binary tree automorphisms in terms of their Hausdorff dimension. We prove that there are exactly $2^{2d-3}$ finitely constrained groups of binary tree…

Let $p$ be a prime number. A saturated fusion system $\mathcal{F}$ on a finite $p$-group $S$ is said to be supersolvable if there is a series $1 = S_0 \le S_1 \le \dots \le S_m = S$ of subgroups of $S$ such that $S_i$ is strongly…

In this paper, we investigate finite solvable tidy groups. We classify the tidy $\{ p, q \}$-groups. Combining this with a previous result, we are able to characterize the finite tidy solvable groups. Using this characterization, we bound…

In the present paper, we shall show that for any prime number p, every finite p-group occurs as the Galois Group of the maximal unramified p-extension over a certain number field of finite degree. We shall also show that for any given…

Motivated by examples in infinite group theory, we classify the finite groups whose subgroups can never be decomposed as direct products.

Finite $p$-groups with a unique $\mathcal{A}_2$-subgroup are classified up to isomorphism. A problem proposed by Berkovich and Janko is solved.

Groups of finite type (also called finitely constrained groups), introduced by Grigorchuk, are known to be the closure of regular branch groups. This article explores many of their properties. Firstly, we prove that being finitely…

In this paper, we study the structures of finite groups using some arithmetic conditions on the sizes of real conjugacy classes. We prove that a finite group is solvable if the prime graph on the real class sizes of the group is…

A group is said to be cube-free if its order is not divisible by the cube of any prime. Let $f_{cf,sol}(n)$ denote the isomorphism classes of solvable cube-free groups of order $n$. We find asymptotic bounds for $f_{cf,sol}(n)$ in this…

In the paper we characterize the class of finite solvable groups by two-variable identities in a way similar to the characterization of finite nilpotent groups by Engel identities. More precisely, a sequence of words $u_1,...,u_n,... $ is…

We give a classification of maximal elements of the set of finite groups that can be realized as the full automorphism groups of polarized abelian surfaces over finite fields.
