Groups with soluble minimax conjugate classes of subgroups

2008

A classical result of Neumann characterizes the groups in which each subgroup has finitely many conjugates only as central-by-finite groups. If $\mathfrak{X}$ is a class of groups, a group $G$ is said to have $\mathfrak{X}$-conjugate classes of subgroups if $G/core_G(N_G(H)) \in \mathfrak{X}$ for each subgroup $H$ of $G$. Here we study groups which have soluble minimax conjugate classes of subgroups, giving a description in terms of $G/Z(G)$. We also characterize $FC$-groups which have soluble minimax conjugate classes of subgroups.

Powers of conjugacy classes in a finite groups

2020

[EN] The aim of this paper is to show how the number of conjugacy classes appearing in the product of classes affect the structure of a finite group. The aim of this paper was to show several results about solvability concerning the case in which the power of a conjugacy class is a union of one or two conjugacy classes. Moreover, we show that the above conditions can be determined through the character table of the group.

2-Groups with few rational conjugacy classes

2011

Abstract In this paper we prove the following conjecture of G. Navarro: if G is a finite 2-group with exactly 5 rational conjugacy classes, then G is dihedral, semidihedral or generalized quaternion. We also characterize the 2-groups with 4 rational classes.

Some problems about products of conjugacy classes in finite groups

2020

[EN] We summarize several results about non-simplicity, solvability and normal structure of finite groups related to the number of conjugacy classes appearing in the product or the power of conjugacy classes. We also collect some problems that have only been partially solved.
