Thompson's theorem stated that a finite group $G$ is solvable if and only if every $2$-generated subgroup of $G$ is solvable. In this paper, we prove some new criteria for both solvability and nilpotency of a finite group using certain…
Suppose that G is a finite group and x in G has prime order p > 3. Then x is contained in the solvable radical of G if (and only if) <x,x^g> is solvable for all g in G. If G is an almost simple group and x in G has prime order p > 3 then…
It is shown that finite groups in which the order of the product of every pair of elements of co-prime order is the product of the orders, is nilpotent.
Let $p$ be a prime number, $G$ be a $p$-solvable finite group and $P$ be a Sylow $p$-subgroup of $G$. We prove that $G$ is $p$-supersolvable if $N_G(P)$ is $p$-supersolvable and if there is a subgroup $H$ of $P$ with $P' \le H \le \Phi(P)$…
Let $ H $ be a subgroup of a finite group $ G $. We say that $ H $ satisfies $ \mathscr L $-$ \Pi $-property in $ G $ if $ | G / K : N _{G / K} (HK/K)| $ is a $ \pi (HK/K) $-number for all maximal $ G $-invariant subgroup $ K $ of $ H^{G}…
Let $A$ and $G$ be finite groups such that $A$ acts coprimely on $G$ by automorphisms. For any fixed prime divisor $p$ of $|G|$, we provide a complete characterization of the structure of a group $G$ in which every maximal $A$-invariant…
We show that if $G$ is any $p$-group of class at most two and exponent $p$, then there exist groups $G_1$ and $G_2$ of class two and exponent $p$ that contain $G$, neither of which can be expressed as a central product, and with $G_1$…
We classify the finite groups with the property that any two different character codegrees are coprime. In general, we conjecture that if $k$ is a positive integer such that for any prime $p$ the number of character codegrees of a finite…
Let $G$ be a finite soluble group and $G^{(k)}$ the $k$th term of the derived series of $G$. We prove that $G^{(k)}$ is nilpotent if and only if $|ab|=|a||b|$ for any $\delta_k$-values $a,b\in G$ of coprime orders. In the course of the…
For a given m>=1, we consider the finite non-abelian groups G for which |C_G(g):<g>|<=m for every g in G\Z(G). We show that the order of G can be bounded in terms of m and the largest prime divisor of the order of G. Our approach relies on…
Let $G$ be a finite group and let $p_1,\dots,p_n$ be distinct primes. If $G$ contains an element of order $p_1\cdots p_n,$ then there is an element in $G$ which is not contained in the Frattini subgroup of $G$ and whose order is divisible…
In this paper, we investigate finite solvable tidy groups. We classify the tidy $\{ p, q \}$-groups. Combining this with a previous result, we are able to characterize the finite tidy solvable groups. Using this characterization, we bound…
In this paper, we show that each finite group $G$ containing at most $p^2$ Sylow $p$-subgroups for each odd prime number $p$, is a solvable group. In fact, we give a positive answer to the conjecture in \cite{Rob}.
A subset $X$ of a finite group $G$ is said to be prime-power-independent if each element in $X$ has prime power order and there is no proper subset $Y$ of $X$ with $\langle Y, \Phi(G)\rangle = \langle X, \Phi(G)\rangle$, where $\Phi(G)$ is…
We study a conjecture by Deaconescu on the solubility of finite groups with claims that if more than half of the elements in a finite group has the same order $k$, then the group is soluble. We show that the original conjecture fails by…
Let $G$ be a finite group, and let $V$ be a completely reducible faithful $G$-module. By a result of Glauberman it has been known for a long time that if $G$ is nilpotent of class 2, then $|G| < |V|$. In this paper we generalize this result…
For a finite group $A$ with normal subgroup $G$, a subgroup $U$ of $G$ is an $A$-prime-power-covering subgroup if $U$ meets every $A$-conjugacy-class of elements of $G$ of prime power order. It is conjectured that $|G:U|$ is bounded by some…
We prove that there exists a universal constant $D$ such that if $p$ is a prime divisor of the index of the Fitting subgroup of a finite group $G$, then the number of conjugacy classes of G is at least $Dp/log_2 p$. We conjecture that we…
Let $ G$ be a finite group and $p$ be a prime. Let $ \mathrm{Vo}(G) $ denote the set of the orders of vanishing elements, $\mathrm{Vo}_{p} (G)$ be the subset of $ \mathrm{Vo}(G) $ consisting of those orders of vanishing elements divisible…
A subgroup $H$ of a finite group $G$ is called submodular in $G$, if we can connect $H$ with $G$ by a chain of subgroups, each of which is modular (in the sense of Kurosh) in the next. If a group $G$ is supersoluble and every Sylow subgroup…
