A self-similar group of finite type is the profinite group of all automorphisms of a regular rooted tree that locally around every vertex act as elements of a given finite group of allowed actions. We provide criteria for determining when a…

We are looking for the smallest integer k>1 providing the following characterization of the solvable radical R(G) of any finite group G: R(G) coincides with the collection of all g such that for any k elements a_1,a_2,...,a_k the subgroup…

The generalized order $e_G(g)$ of an element $g$ of a group $G$ is the smallest positive integer $k$ such that there exist $x_1,\ldots,x_k \in G$ such that $g^{x_1} \ldots g^{x_k}=1$, where $g^x=x^{-1}gx$. Let $e(G) = \max \{e_G(g)\ |\ g…

An element $x$ in a finite group $G$ is said to be \textit{vanishing} if some (complex) irreducible character of $G$ takes value $0$ at $x$. In this article, we prove that every non-abelian finite simple group, except $\mathrm{SL}_2(4)$ and…

A group is small if it has countably many complete $n$-types over the empty set for each natural number n. More generally, a group $G$ is weakly small if it has countably many complete 1-types over every finite subset of G. We show here…

For a finite group $G$, let $N(G)$ denote the set of conjugacy class sizes of $G$. We show that if every finite group $G$ with trivial center such that $N(G)$ equals to $N(Alt_n)$, where $n>1361$ and at least one of numbers $n$ or $n-1$ are…

We study relationship among versions of the Knapsack Problem where variables take values in Z and the number of them is fixed. In particular, we construct a finitely presented group where the problem of solvability of exponential equations…

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…

Let $p$ be a prime. We classify the finite groups having exactly two irreducible $p$-Brauer characters of degree larger than one. The case, where the finite groups have orders not divisible by $p$, was done by P. P\'alfy in 1981.

For any commutative finite flat group scheme, Grothendieck constructed an embedding into some smooth group scheme. This embedding is called the Grothendieck resolution. Let $p$ be a prime number and $n$ a positive integer. In connection…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $\sigma_1(G)=\frac{1}{|G|}\sum_{H\leq G}\,|H|$. In this paper, we prove that if $\sigma_1(G)<2+\frac{11}{|G|}$\,, then $G$ is supersolvable. In particular, some new characterizations of the well-known groups…

For a non-empty class of groups $\cal L$, a finite group $G = AB$ is said to be an $\cal L$-connected product of the subgroups $A$ and $B$ if $\langle a, b\rangle \in \cal L$ for all $a \in A$ and $b \in B$. In a previous paper, we prove…

This paper provides a bridge between two active areas of research, the spectrum (set of element orders) and the power graph of a finite group. The order sequence of a finite group $G$ is the list of orders of elements of the group, arranged…

If $G$ is a finite group and $x\in G$ then the set of all elements of $G$ having the same order as $x$ is called {\em an order subset of $G$ determined by $x$} (see [2]). We say that $G$ is a {\em group with perfect order subsets} or…

A recurring theme in finite group theory is understanding how the structure of a finite group is determined by the arithmetic properties of group invariants. There are results in the literature determining the structure of finite groups…

It is shown that for any torsion unit of augmentation one in the integral group ring $\mathbb{Z} G$ of a finite solvable group $G$, there is an element of $G$ of the same order.

We prove that the order of an ordered group is an interval order if and only if it is a semiorder. Next, we prove that every semiorder is isomorphic to a collection $\mathcal J$ of intervals of some totally ordered abelian group, these…

In this paper, we study the posets of classes of subgroups of finite group having same set of orders of elements. We show that this poset is a chain only in the case of p-groups and moreover, we characterize all finite groups for which this…

We will explore the nature of when certain finite groups have an equal covering, and when finite groups do not. Not to be confused with the concept of a cover group, a covering of a group is a collection of proper subgroups whose…

In this paper we give a partial answer to a 1980 question of Lazslo Babai: "Which [finite] groups admit an oriented graph as a DRR?" That is, which finite groups admit an oriented regular representation (ORR)? We show that every finite…
