An improvement of a bound of Green

2012

A p-group G of order pn (p prime, n ≥ 1) satisfies a classic Green's bound log p |M(G)| ≤ ½n(n - 1) on the order of the Schur multiplier M(G) of G. Ellis and Wiegold sharpened this restriction, proving that log p |M(G)| ≤ ½(d - 1)(n + m), where |G′| = pm(m ≥ 1) and d is the minimal number of generators of G. The first author has recently shown that log p |M(G)| ≤ ½(n + m - 2)(n - m - 1) + 1, improving not only Green's bound, but several other inequalities on |M(G)| in literature. Our main results deal with estimations with respect to the bound of Ellis and Wiegold.

On a paper of Beltrán and Shao about coprime action

2020

Abstract Assume that A and G are finite groups of coprime orders such that A acts on G via automorphisms. Let p be a prime. The following coprime action version of a well-known theorem of Ito about the structure of a minimal non-p-nilpotent groups is proved: if every maximal A-invariant subgroup of G is p-nilpotent, then G is p-soluble. If, moreover, G is not p-nilpotent, then G must be soluble. Some earlier results about coprime action are consequences of this theorem.

Injectors with a normal complement in a finite solvable group

2011

Abstract Suppose G is a finite solvable group, and H is a subgroup with a normal complement in G. We shall find necessary and sufficient conditions (some of which are related to the properties of coprime actions) for H to be an injector in G. We shall also use these criteria to find characterizations of injectors which need not have a normal complement.

Fixed point spaces, primitive character degrees and conjugacy class sizes

2006

Let G be a finite group that acts on a nonzero finite dimensional vector space V over an arbitrary field. Assume that V is completely reducible as a G-module, and that G fixes no nonzero vector of V. We show that some element g ∈ G has a small fixed-point space in V. Specifically, we prove that we can choose g so that dim C V (g) < (1/p)dim V, where p is the smallest prime divisor of |G|.

Products of groups and group classes

1994

Letχ be a Schunck class, and let the finite groupG=AB=BC=AC be the product of two nilpotent subgroupsA andB andχ-subgroupC. If for every common prime divisorp of the orders ofA andB the cyclic group of orderp is anχ-group, thenG is anχ-group. This generalizes earlier results of O. Kegel and F. Peterson. Some related results for groups of the formG=AB=AK=BK, whereK is a nilpotent normal subgroup ofG andA andB areχ-groups for some saturated formationχ, are also proved.
