Supersolubility of a finite group $G=\langle A,B\rangle$ with the nilpotent derived subgroup $G^\prime$ is established under the condition that the subgroups $A$ and $B$ are both subnormal and supersoluble.

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 result of Pyber states that every finite group $G$ contains an abelian subgroup whose order is quasi-polynomially large in $\lvert G\rvert$. We prove a similar result for $K$-approximate subgroups of solvable groups under only modest…

We show, using acylindrical hyperbolicity, that a finitely generated group splitting over $\Z$ cannot be simple. We also obtain SQ-universality in most cases, for instance a balanced group (one where if two powers of an infinite order…

The main aim of this article is to study the quantitative structure of projective symplectic groups $PSp_{4}(q)$ with $q>2$ even. Indeed, we prove that the groups $PSp_{4}(q)$ with $q>2$ even are uniquely determined by their orders and the…

We prove a natural generalization of Szep's conjecture. Given an almost simple group $G$ with socle not isomorphic to an orthogonal group having Witt defect zero, we classify all possible group elements $x,y\in G\setminus\{1\}$ with $G={\bf…

We determine the combinatorial and the ordinary depth of the maximal subgroups of the simple Ree groups, $R(q)$.

We establish a one-to-one correspondence between numerical semigroups of genus $g$ and almost symmetric numerical semigroups with Frobenius number $F$ and type $F-2g$, provided that $F$ is greater than $4g-1$.

Suppose that $A$, $B$ and $S$ are non-empty subsets of a finite abelian group $G$. Then the generalized restricted sumset $$ A\stackrel{S}+B:=\{a+b:\,a\in A,\ b\in B,\ a-b\not\in S\} $$ contains at least $$ \min\{|A|+|B|-3|S|,p(G)\} $$…

We prove that the subgroup permutability degree of the simple Suzuki groups vanishes asymptotically. In the course of the proof we establish that the limit of the probability of a subgroup of $\Sz(q)$ being a 2-group is equal to 1.

We study maximal subsemigroups of the monoid T(X) of all full transformations on the set X=N of natural numbers containing a given subsemigroup W of T(X) where each element of a given set $U$ is a generator of T(X) modulo W. This note…

In this paper, we give a classification of the subgroups of $\textrm{PSL}(3, \mathbb{C})$ that act on $\mathbb{P}_{\mathbb{C}}^2$ in such a way that their Kulkarni limit set has finitely many lines in general position lines. These are the…

The complete classification of the finite simple groups that are $(2,3)$-generated is a problem which is still open only for orthogonal groups. Here, we construct $(2, 3)$-generators for the finite odd-dimensional orthogonal groups…

Let G be a finite group, Irr(G) the set of all irreducible complex characters of G and X \in Irr(G). Let also cod(X) = |G : kerX|/X(1) and cod(G) = {cod(X) | X \in Irr(G)}. In this note, we show that the simple group PSL(2, q), for a prime…

We present a method to compute finite index subgroups of $PSL_2(\mathbb{Z})$. Our strategy follows Kulkarni's ideas, the main contribution being a recursive method to compute bivalent trees and their automorphism group. As a concrete…

We complete the classification of pronormal subgroups in the projective special linear groups PSL(2,q), the Suzuki groups of Lie type Sz(q), and the first Janko group J1, for the same ranges of q as in previous studies. Building on those…

We conclude from the results of Hanguang Meng and Xiuyun Guo some corollaries about the existence of strictly 2-maximal subgroups in groups. We give examples of groups that illustrate properties of strictly 2-maximal subgroups.

Let $\sigma =\{\sigma_{i} | i\in I\}$ be some partition of the set of all primes $\Bbb{P}$. A set ${\cal H}$ of subgroups of $G$ is said to be a \emph{complete Hall $\sigma $-set} of $G$ if every member $\ne 1$ of ${\cal H}$ is a Hall…

Given a finite group $G$ and a prime $p$, let $\mathcal{A}_p(G)$ be the poset of nontrivial elementary abelian $p$-subgroups of $G$. The group $G$ satisfies the Quillen dimension property at $p$ if $\mathcal{A}_p(G)$ has non-zero homology…

The strong fractional choice number of a graph $G$ is the infimum of those real numbers $r$ such that $G$ is $(\lceil rm \rceil, m)$-choosable for every positive integer $m$. The strong fractional choice number of a family ${\cal G}$ of…
