Every finite group $G$ has a normal series each of whose factors is either a solvable group or a direct product of nonabelian simple groups. The minimum number of nonsolvable factors attained on all possible such series is called the…

Iwasawa's theorem indicates that a finite group $G$ is supersolvable if and only if all maximal chains of the identity in $G$ have the same length. As generalizations of Iwasawa's theorem, we provide some characterizations of the structure…

In 1904, Issai Schur proved the following result. If $G$ is an arbitrary group such that $G/\Z(G)$ is finite, where $\Z(G)$ denotes the center of the group $G$, then the commutator subgroup of $G$ is finite. A partial converse of this…

Let G be a finite group. A subgroup M of G is said to be an NR-subgroup if, whenever K is normal in M, then K^G\cap M=K, where K^G is the normal closure of K in G. Using the Classification of Finite Simple Groups, we prove that if every…

A subgroup $H$ of a finite group $G$ is said to be an NC-subgroup of $G$, if $ H^G N_G (H) =G$, where $H^G$ denotes the normal closure of $H$ in $G$. A finite group $G$ is called a PNC-group, if any subgroup of $G$ is an NC-subgroup of $G$,…

Consider a nonsolvable finite group G, where R(G) represents the solvable radical of G. For any element x in G, the solvabilizer of x in G, denoted by Sol_G(x), is defined as the set of all elements y in G such that the subgroup generated…

For an irreducible complex character $\chi$ of a finite group $G$, the codegree of $\chi$ is defined by $|G:\ker(\chi)|/\chi(1)$, where $\ker(\chi)$ is the kernel of $\chi$. Given a prime $p$, we provide a classification of finite groups in…

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…

We prove that there exists an integer-valued function f on positive integers such that if a finite group G has at most k real-valued irreducible characters, then |G/Sol(G)| is at most f(k), where Sol(G) denotes the largest solvable normal…

Let \(G\) be a finite group, and let \(\Delta(G)\) denote the \emph{prime graph} built on the set of degrees of the irreducible complex characters of \(G\). It is well known that, whenever \(\Delta(G)\) is connected, the diameter of…

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 finite abelian group $G$ and a positive integer $h$, the unrestricted (resp.~restricted) $h$-critical number $\chi(G,h)$ (resp.~$\chi \hat{\;}(G,h)$) of $G$ is defined to be the minimum value of $m$, if exists, for which the $h$-fold…

Let $\Gamma(G)$ be the Gruenberg-Kegel graph of a finite group $G$. We prove that if $G$ is solvable and $\sigma$ is a cut-set for $\Gamma(G)$, then $G$ has a $\sigma$-series of length $5$ whose factors are controlled. As a consequence, we…

Let $o(G)$ be the average order of a finite group $G$. In this paper, we prove that if $o(G)<\frac{31}{12}$\,, then $G$ is supersolvable. Moreover, we have $o(G)=\frac{31}{12}$ if and only if $G\cong A_4$. We also classify finite groups $G$…

Let $G$ be a finite almost simple group with socle $G_0$. A (nontrivial) factorization of $G$ is an expression of the form $G=HK$, where the factors $H$ and $K$ are core-free subgroups. There is an extensive literature on factorizations of…
