Let $G$ be a finite group and $N$ a normal subgroup of $G$. We determine the structure of $N$ when the graph $\Gamma_G(N)$, which is the graph associated to the conjugacy classes of $G$ contained in $N$, has no triangles and when the graph…

Let $G$ be a finite group and let $N$ be a normal subgroup of $G$. We attach to $N$ two graphs ${\Gamma}_G(N)$ and ${\Gamma}^{\ast}_G(N)$ related to the conjugacy classes of $G$ contained in $N$ and to the set of primes dividing the sizes…

Given a finite group $G$ with a normal subgroup $N$, the simple graph $\Gamma_\textit{G}( \textit{N} )$ is a graph whose vertices are of the form $|x^G|$, where $x\in{N\setminus{Z(G)}}$, and $x^G$ is the $G$-conjugacy class of $N$…

We consider finite groups having a conjugacy class that is the difference of two normal subgroups. That is, suppose $G$ is a group and $M$ and $N$ are normal subgroups so that $N < M$, and suppose that there is an element $g \in G$ so that…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $N(G)$ be the set of its conjugacy class sizes excluding~$1$. Let us define a directed graph $\Gamma(G)$, the set of vertices of this graph is $N(G)$ and the vertices $x$ and $y$ are connected by a directed…

Let $G$ be a finite $p$-separable group, for some fixed prime $p$. Let $\Gamma_p(G)$ be the common divisor graph built on the set of non-central conjugacy classes of $p$-regular elements of $G$: this is the graph whose vertices are the…

We introduce the normalising graph of a group and study the connectivity of the normalising and permuting graphs of a group when the group is finite and soluble. In particular, we classify finite soluble groups with disconnected normalising…

Given a finite group $G$, denote by $\Gamma(G)$ the simple undirected graph whose vertices are the distinct sizes of noncentral conjugacy classes of $G$, and set two vertices of $\Gamma(G)$ to be adjacent if and only if they are not coprime…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $N$ a normal subgroup of $G$. We prove that the knowledge of the sizes of the conjugacy classes of $G$ that are contained in $N$ and of their multiplicities provides information of $N$ in relation to the…

The commuting graph of a group $G$ is the simple undirected graph whose vertices are the non-central elements of $G$ and two distinct vertices are adjacent if and only if they commute. It is conjectured by Jafarzadeh and Iranmanesh that…

We prove that if a finite group $G$ contains a conjugacy class $K$ whose square is of the form $1 \cup D$, where $D$ is a conjugacy class of $G$, then $\langle K \rangle$ is a solvable proper normal subgroup of $G$ and we completely…

Let $G$ be a non-abelian finite simple group. In addition, let $\Delta_G$ be the intersection graph of $G$, whose vertices are the proper nontrivial subgroups of $G$, with distinct subgroups joined by an edge if and only if they intersect…

For a finite group $G$, let $B$ be an equivalence (equality, conjugacy or order) relation on $G$ and let $A$ be a (power, enhanced power or commuting) graph with vertex set $G$. The $B$ super $A$ graph is a simple graph with vertex set $G$…

Given a finite group $G$ and a generating set $S \subseteq G$, the diameter $diam(G,S)$ is the least integer $n$ such that every element of $G$ is the product of at most $n$ elements of $S$. In this paper, for bounded $|S|$, we characterize…

The intersection graph $\Delta_G$ of a finite group $G$ is a simple graph with vertices the non-trivial proper subgroups of $G$, and an edge between two vertices if their corresponding subgroups intersect non-trivially. These graphs were…

Let $G$ be a finite insoluble group with soluble radical $R(G)$. In this paper we investigate the soluble graph of $G$, which is a natural generalisation of the widely studied commuting graph. Here the vertices are the elements in $G…

Let $G$ be a group. A subset $S$ of $G$ is said to normally generate $G$ if $G$ is the normal closure of $S$ in $G.$ In this case, any element of $G$ can be written as a product of conjugates of elements of $S$ and their inverses. If $g\in…

To any finite group $G$, we may associate a graph whose vertices are the elements of $G$ and where two distinct vertices $x$ and $y$ are adjacent if and only if the order of the subgroup $\langle x, y\rangle$ is divisible by at least 3…

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…

Suppose that $x$, $y$ are elements of a finite group $G$ lying in conjugacy classes of coprime sizes. We prove that $\langle x^G \rangle \cap \langle y^G \rangle$ is an abelian normal subgroup of $G$ and, as a consequence, that if $x$ and…
