Groups whose prime graph on conjugacy class sizes has few complete vertices

2012

Abstract Let G be a finite group, and let Γ ( G ) denote the prime graph built on the set of conjugacy class sizes of G. In this paper, we consider the situation when Γ ( G ) has “few complete vertices”, and our aim is to investigate the influence of this property on the group structure of G. More precisely, assuming that there exists at most one vertex of Γ ( G ) that is adjacent to all the other vertices, we show that G is solvable with Fitting height at most 3 (the bound being the best possible). Moreover, if Γ ( G ) has no complete vertices, then G is a semidirect product of two abelian groups having coprime orders. Finally, we completely characterize the case when Γ ( G ) is a regular …

Group graded algebras and multiplicities bounded by a constant

2013

AbstractLet G be a finite group and A a G-graded algebra over a field of characteristic zero. When A is a PI-algebra, the graded codimensions of A are exponentially bounded and one can study the corresponding graded cocharacters via the representation theory of products of symmetric groups. Here we characterize in two different ways when the corresponding multiplicities are bounded by a constant.

Large subgroups of a finite group of even order

2011

It is shown that if G G is a group of even order with trivial center such that | G | > 2 | C G ( t ) | 3 |G|>2|C_{G}(t)|^{3} for some involution t ∈ G t\in G , then there exists a proper subgroup H H of G G such that | G | > | H | 2 |G|> |H|^{2} . If | G | > | C G ( t ) | 3 |G|>|C_{G}(t)|^{3} and k ( G ) k(G) is the class number of G G , then | G | ≤ k ( G ) 3 |G|\leq k(G)^{3} .

Finite Soluble Groups with Permutable Subnormal Subgroups

2001

Abstract A finite group G is said to be a PST -group if every subnormal subgroup of G permutes with every Sylow subgroup of G . We shall discuss the normal structure of soluble PST -groups, mainly defining a local version of this concept. A deep study of the local structure turns out to be crucial for obtaining information about the global property. Moreover, a new approach to soluble PT -groups, i.e., soluble groups in which permutability is a transitive relation, follows naturally from our vision of PST -groups. Our techniques and results provide a unified point of view for T -groups, PT -groups, and PST -groups in the soluble universe, showing that the difference between these classes is…

Sylow numbers and nilpotent Hall subgroups

2013

Abstract Let π be a set of primes and G a finite group. We characterize the existence of a nilpotent Hall π-subgroup of G in terms of the number of Sylow subgroups for the primes in π.

Quotients of Hypersurfaces in Weighted Projective Space

2009

Abstract In [Bini, van Geemen, Kelly, Mirror quintics, discrete symmetries and Shioda maps, 2009] some quotients of one-parameter families of Calabi–Yau varieties are related to the family of Mirror Quintics by using a construction due to Shioda. In this paper, we generalize this construction to a wider class of varieties. More specifically, let A be an invertible matrix with non-negative integer entries. We introduce varieties XA and in weighted projective space and in , respectively. The variety turns out to be a quotient of a Fermat variety by a finite group. As a by-product, XA is a quotient of a Fermat variety and is a quotient of XA by a finite group. We apply this construction to som…

On minimal non-PC-groups

2009

On dit qu'un groupe G est un PC-groupe, si pour tout x ∈ G, G/C G (x G ) est une extension d'un groupe polycyclique par un groupe fini. Un non-PC-groupe minimal est un groupe qui n'est pas un PC-groupe mais dont tous les sous-groupes propres sont des PC-groupes. Notre principal resultat est qu'un non-PC-groupe minimal ayant un groupe quotient fini non-trivial est une extension cyclique finie d'un groupe abelien divisible de rang fini.
