Let $ G $ be a finite group of order $ n$. The strong power graph $\mathcal{P}_s(G) $ of $G$ is the undirected graph whose vertices are the elements of $G$ such that two distinct vertices $a$ and $b$ are adjacent if $a^{{m}_1}$=$b^{{m}_2}$…

The power graph of a group is the graph whose vertex set is the set of nontrivial elements of group, two elements being adjacent if one is a power of the other. We introduce some way for find the automorphism groups of some graphs. As an…

In this paper, from the viewpoint of the concentration theory of maps, we study a compact group and a L\'{e}vy group action to a large class of metric spaces, such as R-trees, doubling spaces, metric graphs, and Hadamard manifolds.

We investigate the language classes recognized by group automata over matrix groups. For the case of $2 \times 2 $ matrices, we prove that the corresponding group automata for rational matrix groups are more powerful than the corresponding…

The power graph $\mathscr{P}(G)$ of a group $G$ is defined as the simple graph with vertex set $G$, and where two distinct vertices $x$ and $y$ are joined by an edge if and only if either $x= y^k$ or $y= x^k$, $k \in \mathbb{N}$. Here we…

We provide the first examples of words in the free group of rank 2 which are not proper powers and for which the corresponding word maps are non-surjective on an infinite family of finite non-abelian simple groups.

A binary operation on any set induces a binary operation on its subsets. We explore families of subsets of a group that become a group under the induced operation and refer to such families as power groups of the given group. Our results…

The power graph of a group $G$ is the graph whose vertex set is $G$ and two distinct vertices are adjacent if one is a power of the other. This paper investigates the minimal separating sets of power graphs of finite groups. For power…
