In this paper we survey a new criteria for solvability of finite groups in terms of number of supersolvable (also known as polycyclic) and non-supersolvable subgroups. In particular, we present original examples of supersolvable groups such…

In this paper, we provide new criteria for the solvability and supersolvability of a finite group based on its number of cyclic subgroups. A finite group G is called n-cyclic if it contains n cyclic subgroups. This paper also partially…

In this paper we introduce and study the concept of cyclic factorization number of a finite group G. By using the Mobius inversion formula and other methods involving the cyclic subgroup structure, this is explicitly computed for some…

By using the structure and some properties of extraspecial and generalized/almost extraspecial $p$-groups, we explicitly determine the number of elements of specific orders in such groups. As a consequence, one may find the number of cyclic…

We prove by using simple number-theoretic arguments formulae concerning the number of elements of a fixed order and the number of cyclic subgroups of a direct product of several finite cyclic groups. We point out that certain multiplicative…

We study the number of cylic subgroups in finite groups and get that $G$ has $|G|-3$ cyclic subgroups if and only if $G \cong D_{10}$ or $Q_8$.

Let $G$ be a finite group, $L_1(G)$ be its poset of cyclic subgroups and consider the quantity $\alpha(G)=\frac{|L_1(G)|}{|G|}$. The aim of this paper is to study the class $\cal{C}$ of finite nilpotent groups having…

Suppose $C(G)$ denotes the set of all cyclic subgroups of a finite group $G$, and $\mathcal{O}_{2}(G)$ denotes the number of elements of order $2$ in $G$. In [Marius T., Finite groups with a certain number of cyclic subgroups. The American…

A finite group is said to be $n$-cyclic if it contains $n$ cyclic subgroups. For a finite group $G$, the ratio of the number of cyclic subgroups to the number of subgroups is known as the cyclicity degree of the group $G$ and is denoted by…

Marius T\u{a}rn\u{a}uceanu described the finite groups $G$ having $|G|-1$ cyclic subgroups. We describe the finite groups $G$ having $|G|-\Delta$ cyclic subgroups for $\Delta=2, 3, 4$ and $5$.

The subgroup pattern of a finite groups $G$ is the table of marks of $G$ together with a list of representatives of the conjugacy classes of subgroups of $G$. In this article we present an algorithm for the computation of the subgroup…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $\alpha(G)=\frac{|C(G)|}{|G|}$\,, where $C(G)$ denotes the set of cyclic subgroups of $G$. In this short note, we prove that $\alpha(G)\leq\alpha(Z(G))$ and we describe the groups $G$ for which the equality…

We present a survey of exact and asymptotic formulas on the number of cyclic subgroups and total number of subgroups of the groups ${\Bbb Z}_{n_1} \times \cdots \times {\Bbb Z}_{n_k}$, where $k\ge 2$ and $n_1,\ldots,n_k$ are arbitrary…

The main goal of this paper is to apply the arithmetic method developed in our previous paper \cite{13} to determine the number of some types of subgroups of finite abelian groups.

In this note, we give a new formula for the number of cyclic subgroups of a finite abelian group. This is based on applying the Burnside's lemma to a certain group action. Also, it generalizes the well-known Menon's identity.

This is a collection of examples showing how the GAP system can be used to compute information about the generating graphs of finite groups. It includes all examples that were needed for the computational results in the paper "Hamiltonian…

The number of subgroups and the number of cyclic subgroups are natural combinatorial invariants of a finite group. We investigate how restrictions on these quantities, together with the number of distinct prime divisors of $|G|$, enforce…
