Over each nontrivial finite group $G$, there exists a finite system of equations having no solutions in larger finite groups but having a solution in a periodic group containing $G$. We prove several similar facts about amenable, orderable,…

Many results have been established that show how the number of conjugacy classes appearing in the product of classes affect the structure of a finite group. The aim of this paper is to show several results about solvability concerning the…

Let G be a linear algebraic group defined over a finite field F_q. We present several connections between the isogenies of G and the finite groups of rational points G(F_q^n). We show that an isogeny from G' to G over F_q gives rise to a…

Given a finite group $G$, denote by $\Gamma(G)$ the simple undirected graph whose vertices are the distinct sizes of noncentral conjugacy classes of $G$, and set two vertices of $\Gamma(G)$ to be adjacent if and only if they are not coprime…

We discuss whether finiteness properties of a profinite group $G$ can be deduced from the probabilistic zeta function $P_G(s)$. In particular we prove that if $P_G(s)$ is rational and all but finitely many nonabelian composition factors of…

For the finite groups GU(3), SU(3), GL(3), SL(3) over a finite field we solve the class product problem, i.e., we give a complete list of $m$-tuples of conjugacy classes whose product does not contain the identity matrix.

In this paper we classify the finite groups satisfying the following property $P_4$: their orders of representatives are set-wise relatively prime for any 4 distinct non-central conjugacy classes.

This note presents the study of the conjugacy classes of elements of some given finite order n in the Cremona group of the plane. In particular, it is shown that the number of conjugacy classes is infinite if n is even, n=3 or n=5, and that…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $\mathrm{Irr}(G)$ be the set of irreducible characters of $G$. The codegree of an irreducible character $\chi$ of the group $G$ is defined as $\mathrm{cod}(\chi)=|G:\mathrm{ker}(\chi)|/\chi(1)$. In this paper,…

Let $K$ be a field of characteristic not two and $K(x,y,z)$ the rational function field over $K$ with three variables $x,y,z$. Let $G$ be a finite group of acting on $K(x,y,z)$ by monomial $K$-automorphisms. We consider the rationality…

Let $\chi$ be a complex irreducible character of a finite group $G$. The conductor of $\chi$, denoted $c(\chi)$, is the smallest positive integer $n$ such that $\chi(x)\in \mathbb{Q}(\exp({2\pi i/n}))$ for all $x\in G$. We show that for…

We prove that there are examples of finitely generated groups G together with group ring elements Q \in \bbQ G for which the von Neumann dimension \dim_{LG}\ker Q is irrational, so (in conjunction with other known results) answering a…

For an irreducible character $\chi$ of a finite group $G$, its kernel is defined as $\text{ker }\chi=\{g\in G: \chi(g)=\chi(1)\}$. In this paper we characterize the finite groups of prime power order(for odd prime) in which kernels of all…

Let $P$ be a principal indecomposable module of a finite group $G$ in characteristic $2$ and let $\varphi$ be the Brauer character of the corresponding simple $G$-module. We show that $P$ affords a non-degenerate $G$-invariant quadratic…

Let $ G $ be a finite non-solvable group with a primitive irreducible character $ \chi $ that vanishes on one conjugacy class. We show that $ G $ has a homomorphic image that is either almost simple or a Frobenius group. We also classify…

In this paper we find the number of conjugate $\pi$-Hall subgroups in all finite almost simple groups. We also complete the classification of $\pi$-Hall subgroups in finite simple groups and correct some mistakes from our previous paper.

K. Harada conjectured for any finite group $G$, the product of sizes of all conjugacy classes is divisible by the product of degrees of all irreducible characters. We study this conjecture when $G$ is the general linear group over a finite…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $a\in G$. Let $a^G=\{g^{-1}ag\mid g\in G\}$ be the conjugacy class of $a$ in $G$. Assume that $a^G$ and $b^G$ are conjugacy classes of $G$ with the property that ${\bf C}_G(a)={\bf C}_G(b)$. Then $a^G b^G$ is a…
