On a generalization of a theorem of Burnside

Jiangtao Shi (2015)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

A theorem of Burnside asserts that a finite group G is p -nilpotent if for some prime p a Sylow p -subgroup of G lies in the center of its normalizer. In this paper, let G be a finite group and p the smallest prime divisor of | G | , the order of G . Let P Syl p ( G ) . As a generalization of Burnside’s theorem, it is shown that if every non-cyclic p -subgroup of G is self-normalizing or normal in G then G is solvable. In particular, if P a , b | a p n - 1 = 1 , b 2 = 1 , b - 1 a b = a 1 + p n - 2 , where n 3 for p > 2 and n 4 for p = 2 , then G is p -nilpotent or p -closed.

On a group-theoretical generalization of the Gauss formula

Georgiana Fasolă, Marius Tărnăuceanu (2023)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

We discuss a group-theoretical generalization of the well-known Gauss formula involving the function that counts the number of automorphisms of a finite group. This gives several characterizations of finite cyclic groups.

On abelian inner mapping groups of finite loops

Markku Niemenmaa (2000)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

In this paper we consider finite loops of specific order and we show that certain abelian groups are not isomorphic to inner mapping groups of these loops. By using our results we are able to construct a finite solvable group of order 120 which is not isomorphic to the multiplication group of a finite loop.

On B-injectors of symmetric groups Sₙ and alternating groups Aₙ: a new approach

M. I. AlAli, Bilal Al-Hasanat, I. Sarayreh, M. Kasassbeh, M. Shatnawi, A. Neumann (2009)

Colloquium Mathematicae

The aim of this paper is to introduce the notion of BG-injectors of finite groups and invoke this notion to determine the B-injectors of Sₙ and Aₙ and to prove that they are conjugate. This paper provides a new, more straightforward and constructive proof of a result of Bialostocki which determines the B-injectors of the symmetric and alternating groups.
