Conjugacy Classes Contained in Normal Subgroups: an Overview

چکیده
We survey known results concerning how the conjugacy classes contained in a normal subgroup and their sizes exert an influence on the normal structure of a finite group. The approach is mainly presented in the framework of graphs associated to the conjugacy classes, which have been introduced and developed in the past few years. We will see how the properties of these graphs, along with some extensions of the classic Landau’s Theorem on conjugacy classes for normal subgroups, have been used in order to classify groups and normal subgroups satisfying certain conjugacy class numerical conditions.

Nilpotent groups with three conjugacy classes of non-normal subgroups
Let $G$ be a finite group and $nu(G)$ denote the number of conjugacy classes of non-normal subgroups of $G$. In this paper, all nilpotent groups $G$ with $nu(G)=3$ are classified.
متن کاملGroups with one conjugacy class of non-normal subgroups - a short proof
For a finite group $G$ let $nu(G)$ denote the number of conjugacy classes of non-normal subgroups of $G$. We give a short proof of a theorem of Brandl, which classifies finite groups with $nu(G)=1$.
متن کاملOn the type of conjugacy classes and the set of indices of maximal subgroups
Let $G$ be a finite group. By $MT(G)=(m_1,cdots,m_k)$ we denote the type of conjugacy classes of maximal subgroups of $G$, which implies that $G$ has exactly $k$ conjugacy classes of maximal subgroups and $m_1,ldots,m_k$ are the numbers of conjugates of maximal subgroups of $G$, where $m_1leqcdotsleq m_k$. In this paper, we give some new characterizations of finite groups by ...
متن کاملOn non-normal non-abelian subgroups of finite groups
In this paper we prove that a finite group $G$ having at most three conjugacy classes of non-normal non-abelian proper subgroups is always solvable except for $Gcong{rm{A_5}}$, which extends Theorem 3.3 in [Some sufficient conditions on the number of non-abelian subgroups of a finite group to be solvable, Acta Math. Sinica (English Series) 27 (2011) 891--896.]. Moreover, we s...
متن کاملOn finite $X$-decomposable groups for $X={1, 2, 3, 4}$
Let $mathcal {N}_G$ denote the set of all proper normal subgroups of a group $G$ and $A$ be an element of $mathcal {N}_G$. We use the notation $ncc(A)$ to denote the number of distinct $G$-conjugacy classes contained in $A$ and also $mathcal {K}_G$ for the set ${ncc(A) | Ain mathcal {N}_G}$. Let $X$ be a non-empty set of positive integers. A group $G$ is said to be $X$-d...
