A group law is said to be detectable in power subgroups if, for all coprime $m$ and $n$, a group $G$ satisfies the law if and only if the power subgroups $G^m$ and $G^n$ both satisfy the law. We prove that for all positive integers $c$,…

The aim of this paper is to present a complete description of the structure of finite subsets with small doubling property in ordered nilpotent groups of class 2.

We give a new, effective proof of the separability of cubically convex-cocompact subgroups of special groups. As a consequence, we show that if $G$ is a virtually compact special hyperbolic group, and $Q\leq G$ is a $K$-quasiconvex…

We show that, for a finitely generated residually finite group $\Gamma$, the word $[x_1, \ldots, x_k]$ is a probabilistic identity of $\Gamma$ if and only if $\Gamma$ is virtually nilpotent of class less than $k$. Related results,…

Let $G$ be a group. The \emph{power graph} of $G$ is a graph with the vertex set $G$, having an edge between two elements whenever one is a power of the other. We characterize nilpotent groups whose power graphs have finite independence…

We study groups having the property that every non-cyclic subgroup contains its centralizer. The structure of nilpotent and supersolvable groups in this class is described. We also classify finite $p$-groups and finite simple groups with…

We consider factorizations of a finite group $G$ into conjugate subgroups, $G=A^{x_{1}}\cdots A^{x_{k}}$ for $A\leq G$ and $x_{1},\ldots ,x_{k}\in G$, where $A$ is nilpotent or solvable. First we exploit the split $BN$-pair structure of…

In Part I it was shown that if G is a p-group of class k, generated by elements of orders 1<p^{alpha_1} <= ... <= p^{alpha_r}, then a necessary condition for the capability of G is that r>1 and alpha_r <= alpha_{r-1} + [(k-1)/(p-1)]. It was…

The power graph of a group $G$ is a simple and undirected graph with vertex set $G$ and two distinct vertices are adjacent if one is a power of the other. In this article, we characterize (non-cyclic) finite groups of prime exponent and…

Let $H$ be an abelian subgroup of a finite group $G$ and $\pi$ the set of prime divisors of $|H|$. We prove that $|H O_{\pi}(G)/ O_{\pi}(G)|$ is bounded above by the largest character degree of $G$. A similar result is obtained when $H$ is…

We give a list of finite groups containing all finite groups $G$ such that the group of units $\Z G^*$ of the integral group ring $\Z G$ is subgroup separable. There are only two types of these groups $G$ for which we cannot decide wether…

Baer characterized capable finite abelian groups (a group is capable if it is isomorphic to the quotient of some group by its center) by a condition on the size of the factors in the invariant factor decomposition (the group must be…

We consider groups $G$ such that the set $[G,\varphi]=\{g^{-1}g^{\varphi}|g\in G\}$ is a subgroup for every automorphism $\varphi$ of $G$, and we prove that there exists such a group $G$ that is finite and nilpotent of class $n$ for every…

A group is said to be strongly amenable if each of its proximal topological actions has a fixed point. We show that a finitely generated group is strongly amenable if and only if it is virtually nilpotent. More generally, a countable…

In this paper we consider two functions related to the arithmetic and geometric means of element orders of a finite group, showing that certain lower bounds on such functions strongly affect the group structure. In particular, for every…

We show that group C*-algebras of finitely generated, nilpotent groups have finite nuclear dimension. It then follows, from a string of deep results, that the C*-algebra $A$ generated by an irreducible representation of such a group has…

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 $G$ 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…

In this paper, we discuss about finite groups in which, CGH = NGH, for every abelian subgroup H of non prime power order. Also, we classify all such nilpotent and minimal non nilpotent groups.

In this note we show that if $p$ is an odd prime and $G$ is a powerful $p$-group with $N\leq G^{p}$ and $N$ normal in $G$, then $N$ is powerfully nilpotent. An analogous result is proved for $p=2$ when $N\leq G^{4}$.
