Let $G$ be a finite cyclic group of order $n \ge 2$. Every sequence $S$ over $G$ can be written in the form $S=(n_1g)\cdot ... \cdot (n_lg)$ where $g\in G$ and $n_1,..., n_l \in [1,\ord(g)]$, and the index $\ind (S)$ of $S$ is defined as…

Let $H$ be a subgroup of a group $G$. We say that $H$ satisfies the power condition with respect to $G$, or $H$ is a power subgroup of $G$, if there exists a non-negative integer $m$ such that $H=G^{m}=<g^{m} | g \in G >$. In this note, the…

Let $G$ be a group and $G_0 \subseteq G$ be a subset. A sequence over $G_0$ means a finite sequence of terms from $G_0$, where the order of elements is disregarded and the repetition of elements is allowed. A product-one sequence is a…

A subgroup $H$ of a finite group $G$ is said to be an $\mathscr{H}C$-subgroup of $G$ if there exists a normal subgroup $T$ of $G$ such that $G=HT$ and $H^g \cap N_T(H)\leq H$ for all $g\in G$. In this paper, we investigate the structure of…

T.C. Burness and S.D. Scott \cite{3} classified finite groups $G$ such that the number of prime order subgroups of $G$ is greater than $|G|/2-1$. In this note, we study finite groups $G$ whose subgroup graph contains a vertex of degree…

This paper studies a partial order on the general linear group GL(V) called the absolute order, derived from viewing GL(V) as a group generated by reflections, that is, elements whose fixed space has codimension one. The absolute order on…

A cyclic subgroup $N$ of a finite group $G$ is called a uni-width subgroup of $G$ if $N$ is the unique cyclic subgroup of $G$ of order $|N|$. In this article, we prove that a finite group $G$ admits a unique largest uni-width subgroup…

It was shown in Part I that there exist strongly dense free subgroups in any semisimple algebraic group over a large enough field. These are nonabelian free subgroups all of whose subgroups are either cyclic or Zariski-dense. Here we show…

It is shown that in the units of augmentation one of an integral group ring $\mathbb{Z} G$ of a finite group $G$, a noncyclic subgroup of order $p^{2}$, for some odd prime $p$, exists only if such a subgroup exists in $G$. The corresponding…

We study finite groups $G$ with the property that for any subgroup $M$ maximal in $G$ whose order is divisible by all the prime divisors of $|G|$, $M$ is supersolvable. We show that any nonabelian simple group can occur as a composition…

Let $\mathcal{G}$ be the class of all finite groups and consider the function $\psi'':\mathcal{G}\longrightarrow(0,1]$, given by $\psi''(G)=\frac{\psi(G)}{|G|^2}$, where $\psi(G)$ is the sum of element orders of a finite group $G$. In this…

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 $co(k)$…

For a finite group $G$, let $d(G)$ denote the minimal number of elements required to generate $G$. In this paper, given a finite almost simple group $G$ and any maximal subgroup $H$ of $G$, we determine a precise upper bound for $d(H)$. In…

We expound a concise construction of finite groups and groupoids whose Cayley graphs satisfy graded acyclicity requirements. Our acyclicity criteria concern cyclic patterns formed by coset-like configurations w.r.t. subsets of the generator…
