Characterization of the alternating groups by their order and one conjugacy class length

Alireza Khalili Asboei, Reza Mohammadyari (2016)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Let G be a finite group, and let N ( G ) be the set of conjugacy class sizes of G . By Thompson’s conjecture, if L is a finite non-abelian simple group, G is a finite group with a trivial center, and N ( G ) = N ( L ) , then L and G are isomorphic. Recently, Chen et al. contributed interestingly to Thompson’s conjecture under a weak condition. They only used the group order and one or two special conjugacy class sizes of simple groups and characterized successfully sporadic simple groups (see Li’s PhD dissertation). In...

Characterizing finite groups whose enhanced power graphs have universal vertices

David G. Costanzo, Mark L. Lewis, Stefano Schmidt, Eyob Tsegaye, Gabe Udell (2024)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Let G be a finite group and construct a graph Δ ( G ) by taking G { 1 } as the vertex set of Δ ( G ) and by drawing an edge between two vertices x and y if x , y is cyclic. Let K ( G ) be the set consisting of the universal vertices of Δ ( G ) along the identity element. For a solvable group G , we present a necessary and sufficient condition for K ( G ) to be nontrivial. We also develop a connection between Δ ( G ) and K ( G ) when | G | is divisible by two distinct primes and the diameter of Δ ( G ) is 2.

Classification of finite groups with many minimal subgroups and with the number of conjugacy classes of G/S(G) equal to 8.

Collectanea Mathematica

In this paper we classify all the finite groups satisfying r(G/S(G))=8 and ß(G)=r(G) - a(G) - 1, where r(G) is the number of conjugacy classes of G, ß(G) is the number of minimal normal subgroups of G, S(G) the socle of G and a(G) the number of conjugacy classes of G out of S(G). These results are a contribution to the general problem of the classification of the finite groups according to the number of conjugacy classes.
