OD-characterization of alternating groupsA p + d

Yong Yang, Shitian Liu, Zhanghua Zhang (2017)

Open Mathematics

Similarity:

Let An be an alternating group of degree n. Some authors have proved that A10, A147 and A189 cannot be OD-characterizable. On the other hand, others have shown that A16, A23+4, and A23+5 are OD-characterizable. We will prove that the alternating groups Ap+d except A10, are OD-characterizable, where p is a prime and d is a prime or equals to 4. This result generalizes other results.

Groups in which the prime graph is a tree

Maria Silvia Lucido (2002)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

Similarity:

The prime graph Γ G of a finite group G is defined as follows: the set of vertices is π G , the set of primes dividing the order of G , and two vertices p , q are joined by an edge (we write p q ) if and only if there exists an element in G of order p q . We study the groups G such that the prime graph Γ G is a tree, proving that, in this case, π G 8 .

Prime divisors of conjugacy class lengths in finite groups

Carlo Casolo (1991)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti Lincei. Matematica e Applicazioni

Similarity:

We show that in a finite group G which is p -nilpotent for at most one prime dividing its order, there exists an element whose conjugacy class length is divisible by more than half of the primes dividing G / Z G .
