Recognition of characteristically simple group A 5 × A 5 by character degree graph and order

Maryam Khademi, Behrooz Khosravi (2018)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

The character degree graph of a finite group G is the graph whose vertices are the prime divisors of the irreducible character degrees of G and two vertices p and q are joined by an edge if p q divides some irreducible character degree of G . It is proved that some simple groups are uniquely determined by their orders and their character degree graphs. But since the character degree graphs of the characteristically simple groups are complete, there are very narrow class of characteristically simple...

Recognition of some families of finite simple groups by order and set of orders of vanishing elements

Maryam Khatami, Azam Babai (2018)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Let G be a finite group. An element g G is called a vanishing element if there exists an irreducible complex character χ of G such that χ ( g ) = 0 . Denote by Vo ( G ) the set of orders of vanishing elements of G . Ghasemabadi, Iranmanesh, Mavadatpour (2015), in their paper presented the following conjecture: Let G be a finite group and M a finite nonabelian simple group such that Vo ( G ) = Vo ( M ) and | G | = | M | . Then G M . We answer in affirmative this conjecture for M = S z ( q ) , where q = 2 2 n + 1 and either q - 1 , q - 2 q + 1 or q + 2 q + 1 is a prime number, and M = F 4 ( q ) , where q = 2 n and either...

Several quantitative characterizations of some specific groups

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Let G be a finite group and let π ( G ) = { p 1 , p 2 , ... , p k } be the set of prime divisors of | G | for which p 1 < p 2 < < p k . The Gruenberg-Kegel graph of G , denoted GK ( G ) , is defined as follows: its vertex set is π ( G ) and two different vertices p i and p j are adjacent by an edge if and only if G contains an element of order p i p j . The degree of a vertex p i in GK ( G ) is denoted by d G ( p i ) and the k -tuple D ( G ) = ( d G ( p 1 ) , d G ( p 2 ) , ... , d G ( p k ) ) is said to be the degree pattern of G . Moreover, if ω π ( G ) is the vertex set of a connected component of GK ( G ) , then the largest ω -number which divides | G | , is said to be an...

Simple group contain minimal simple groups.

Publicacions Matemàtiques

It is a consequence of the classification of finite simple groups that every non-abelian simple group contains a subgroup which is a minimal simple group.

Thompson’s conjecture for the alternating group of degree 2 p and 2 p + 1

Azam Babai, Ali Mahmoudifar (2017)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

For a finite group G denote by N ( G ) the set of conjugacy class sizes of G . In 1980s, J. G. Thompson posed the following conjecture: If L is a finite nonabelian simple group, G is a finite group with trivial center and N ( G ) = N ( L ) , then G L . We prove this conjecture for an infinite class of simple groups. Let p be an odd prime. We show that every finite group G with the property Z ( G ) = 1 and N ( G ) = N ( A i ) is necessarily isomorphic to A i , where i { 2 p , 2 p + 1 } .
