Let $G$ be a finite group and $d$ the degree of a complex irreducible character of $G$, then write $|G|=d(d+e)$ where $e$ is a nonnegative integer. We prove that $|G|\leq e^4-e^3$ whenever $e>1$. This bound is best possible and improves on…

Let $G$ be a group, let $d$ be a character degree, and let $e$ be the integer so that $|G| = d(d+e)$. It has been shown when $e > 1$ that $|G| \le e^4 - e^3$. In this paper, we consider the groups where $|G| = e^4 - e^3$. It is known that…

The codegree of an irreducible character $\chi$ of a finite group $G$ is defined as $|G:\ker\chi|/\chi(1)$. The codegree graph $\Gamma(G)$ of a finite group $G$ is the graph whose vertices are the prime divisors of $|G|$, where two distinct…

If $G$ is a solvable group, we take $\Delta (G)$ to be the character degree graph for $G$ with primes as vertices. We prove that if $\Delta (G)$ is a square, then $G$ must be a direct product.

A necessary condition for uniqueness of factorizations of elements of a finite group $G$ with factors belonging to a union of some conjugacy classes of $G$ is given. This condition is sufficient if the number of factors belonging to each…

For a character $\chi$ of a finite group $G$, the number cod$(\chi):=|G:\mathrm{ker}(\chi)|/\chi(1)$ is called the codegree of $\chi$.In this paper, we give a solvability criterion for a finite group $G$ depending on the minimum of the…
