We study finite groups $G$ having a subgroup $H$ and $D \subset G \setminus H$ such that the multiset $\{ xy^{-1}:x,y \in D\}$ has every non-identity element occur the same number of times (such a $D$ is called a {\it difference set}). We…

Let $A$ be a non-metacyclic finite group. Suppose that $A$ acts coprimely on a finite group $G$ in such a manner that $C_G(a)$ is nilpotent for any $a\in A^{\#}$. In the present paper we investigate some conditions on $A$ which imply that…

Using methods of associative algebras, Lie theory, group cohomology, and modular representation theory, we construct profinite $p$-adic analytic groups such that the centralizer of each of their non-trivial elements is abelian. The paper…

Every semigroup containing an ideal subgroup is called a homogroup, and it is a grouplike if and only if it has only one central idempotent. On the other hand, a class of algebraic structures covering group-$e$-semigroups…

According to Li, Nicholson and Zan, a group $G$ is said to be morphic if, for every pair $N_{1}, N_{2}$ of normal subgroups, each of the conditions $G/N_{1} \cong N_{2}$ and $G/N_{2} \cong N_{1}$ implies the other. Finite, homocyclic…

Following the literature, a group $G$ is called a group of central type if $G$ has an irreducible character that vanishes on $G\setminus Z(G)$. Motivated by this definition, we say that a character $\chi\in {\rm Irr}(G)$ has central type if…

The integral group ring $\mathbb{Z} G$ of a group $G$ has only trivial central units, if the only central units of $\mathbb{Z} G$ are $\pm z$ for $z$ in the center of $G$. We show that the order of a finite solvable group $G$ with this…

Let $X$ be a finite set such that $|X|=n$. Let $\trans$ and $\sym$ denote respectively the transformation monoid and the symmetric group on $n$ points. Given $a\in \trans\setminus \sym$, we say that a group $G\leq \sym$ is $a$-normalizing…

We classify closed abelian subgroups of the simple groups $G_2$, $F_4$, $Aut(so(8))$ having centralizer the same dimension as the dimension of the subgroup, as well as finite abelian subgroups of certain spin and half-spin groups having…

A group $G$ is said to have restricted centralizers if for every $x\in G$ the centralizer $C_G(x)$ either is finite or has finite index in $G$. Shalev showed that a profinite group with restricted centralizers is virtually abelian. Here we…

Let $R_n(G)$ denotes the set of all right $n$-Engel elements of a group $G$. We show that in any group $G$ whose 5th term of lower central series has no element of order 2, $R_3(G)$ is a subgroup. Furthermore we prove that $R_4(G)$ is a…

According to Comfort, Raczkowski and Trigos-Arrieta, a dense subgroup D of a compact abelian group G determines G if the restriction homomorphism G^ --> D^ of the dual groups is a topological isomorphism. We introduce four conditions on D…

In this paper we give invariants that characterize isotypically equivalent Abelian periodic groups. Also, we describe types of standart tuples of elements in these groups. As the particular case we prove that two Abelian $p$-groups with…

Let $G$ be a $5$-group of maximal class and $\gamma_2(G) = [G, G]$ its derived group. Assume that the abelianization $G/\gamma_2(G)$ is of type $(5, 5)$ and the transfers $V_{H_1\to \gamma_2(G)}$ and $V_{H_2\to \gamma_2(G)}$ are trivial,…

M.Newman has asked if it is the case that whenever H and K are isomorphic subgroups of a finite solvable group G with H maximal, then K is also maximal. This question was considered in a paper of I.M. Isaacs and the second author, where…

We study properties of the realizations of groups as the combinatorial automorphism group of a convex polytope. We show that for any non-abelian group $G$ with a central involution there is a centrally symmetric polytope with $G$ as its…

Let $G$ be a finite group. A coprime commutator in $G$ is any element that can be written as a commutator $[x,y]$ for suitable $x,y\in G$ such that $\pi(x)\cap\pi(y)=\emptyset$. Here $\pi(g)$ denotes the set of prime divisors of the order…

A finite non-abelian group $G$ is called super integral if the spectrum, Laplacian spectrum and signless Laplacian spectrum of its commuting graph contain only integers. In this paper, we first compute various spectra of several families of…

The classification of abelian groups of central type is well known. However, the description of non-abelian groups of central type which are known to be solvable, is far from being understood. In this paper we classify all groups of central…

In \cite{1}, a class of gyrogroups $(G,\odot)$ has been associated to certain groups $(G,\cdot)$. We give a necessary and sufficient condition for $(G,\odot)$ to be gyrocommutative. We also prove that under a suitable assumption two finite…
