Let $o(G)$ be the average order of a finite group $G$. M. Herzog, P. Longobardi and M. Maj \cite{7} showed that if $G$ is non-solvable and $o(G)=o(A_5)$, then $G\cong A_5$. In this note, we prove that the equality $o(G)=o(A_5)$ does not…

An irreducible character $\chi$ of an association scheme is called nonlinear if the multiplicity of $\chi$ is greater than $1$. The main result of this paper gives a characterization of commutative association schemes with at most two…

We classify the finite groups whose non-linear irreducible characters that are not conjugate under the natural Galois action have distinct degrees, therefore extending the results in Berkovich et al. [Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. {\bf 115}…

For a finite group $G$, let $\Delta(G)$ denote the character graph built on the set of degrees of the irreducible complex characters of $G$. In this paper, we determine the structure of all finite groups $G$ with $K_4$-free character graph…

Let $G$ be a finite group, and let cs$(G)$ be the set of conjugacy class sizes of $G$. Recalling that an element $g$ of $G$ is called a \emph{vanishing element} if there exists an irreducible character of $G$ taking the value $0$ on $g$, we…

Let $k(G)$ be the number of conjugacy classes of finite groups $G$ and $\pi_e(G)$ be the set of the orders of elements in $G$. Then there exists a non-negative integer $k$ such that $k(G)=|\pi_e(G)|+k$. We call such groups to be $co(k)$…

Fix $\varepsilon > 0$. We say that a finite group $G$ is $\varepsilon$-quasirandom if every nontrivial irreducible complex representation of $G$ has degree at least $|G|^\varepsilon$. In this paper, we give a structure theorem for large…

The structure of the character degree graphs $\Delta(G)$, i.e. the prime graphs on the set $\mathrm{cd}(G)$ of the irreducible character degrees of a finite group $G$, such that $G$ is solvable and $\Delta(G)$ has diameter three, remains an…

Let $G$ be a finite non-solvable group with solvable radical $Sol(G)$. The solvable graph $\Gamma_s(G)$ of $G$ is a graph with vertex set $G\setminus Sol(G)$ and two distinct vertices $u$ and $v$ are adjacent if and only if $\langle u, v…

Let $G$ be a connected real algebraic group. An unrefinable chain of $G$ is a chain of subgroups $G=G_0>G_1>...>G_t=1$ where each $G_i$ is a maximal connected real subgroup of $G_{i-1}$. The maximal (respectively, minimal) length of such an…

Motivated by the Problem $164$ proposed by Y. Berkovich and E. Zhmud' in their book "Characters of finite groups, Part $1$", we give a characterization of finite groups whose irreducible character codegrees are prime powers. This is based…

Let $G = {\rm U}(2m, {\mathbb F}_{q^2})$ be the finite unitary group, with $q$ the power of an odd prime $p$. We prove that the number of irreducible complex characters of $G$ with degree not divisible by $p$ and with Frobenius-Schur…

Let $G$ be a finite group. An element $g$ of $G$ is called a vanishing element if there exists an irreducible character $\chi$ of $G$ such that $\chi(g) = 0$; in this case, we say that the conjugacy class of $g$ is a vanishing conjugacy…

We present a description of non-solvable groups in which all real irreducible character degrees are prime-power numbers.

The nonsoluble length $\lambda (G)$ of a finite group $G$ is defined as the number of nonsoluble factors in a shortest normal series each of whose factors either is soluble or is a direct product of nonabelian simple groups. The generalized…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $Irr(G)$ the set of irreducible complex characters of $G$. Let $e_p(G)$ be the largest integer such that $p^{e_p(G)}$ divides $\chi(1)$ for some $\chi \in Irr(G)$. We show that $|G:\mathbf{F}(G)|_p \leq p^{k…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $\psi(G) = \sum_{g \in G} o(g)$, where $o(g)$ denotes the order of $g \in G$. In [M. Herzog, et. al., Two new criteria for solvability of finite groups, J. Algebra, 2018], the authors put forward the following…
