چکیده

We prove that for every > 0 there exists a δ > 0 so that every group of order n ≥ 3 has at least δ log2 n/(log2 log2 n) 3+ conjugacy classes. This sharpens earlier results of Pyber and Keller. Bertram speculates whether it is true that every finite group of order n has more than log3 n conjugacy classes. We answer Bertram’s question in the affirmative for groups with a trivial solvable radical.

FINITE GROUPS WITH FIVE NON-CENTRAL CONJUGACY CLASSES

‎Let G be a finite group and Z(G) be the center of G‎. ‎For a subset A of G‎, ‎we define kG(A)‎, ‎the number of conjugacy classes of G that intersect A non-trivially‎. ‎In this paper‎, ‎we verify the structure of all finite groups G which satisfy the property kG(G-Z(G))=5, and classify them‎.

On the Regular Power Graph on the Conjugacy Classes of Finite Groups

emph{The (undirected) power graph on the conjugacy classes} $mathcal{P_C}(G)$ of a group $G$ is a simple graph in which the vertices are the conjugacy classes of $G$ and two distinct vertices $C$ and $C'$ are adjacent in $mathcal{P_C}(G)$ if one is a subset of a power of the other. In this paper, we describe groups whose associated graphs are $k$-regular for $k=5,6$.

Some connections between powers of conjugacy classes and degrees of irreducible characters in solvable groups

‎Let $G$ be a finite group‎. ‎We say that the derived covering number of $G$ is finite if and only if there exists a positive integer $n$ such that $C^n=G'$ for all non-central conjugacy classes $C$ of $G$‎. ‎In this paper we characterize solvable groups $G$ in which the derived covering number is finite‎.‎

COMPUTING THE PRODUCTS OF CONJUGACY CLASSES FOR SPECIFIC FINITE GROUPS

Suppose $G$ is a finite group, $A$ and $B$ are conjugacy classes of $G$ and $eta(AB)$ denotes the number of conjugacy classes contained in $AB$. The set of all $eta(AB)$ such that $A, B$ run over conjugacy classes of $G$ is denoted by $eta(G)$.The aim of this paper is to compute $eta(G)$, $G in { D_{2n}, T_{4n}, U_{6n}, V_{8n}, SD_{8n}}$ or $G$ is a decomposable group of order $2pq$, a group of...

Groups 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 $nu(G)=1$.

On 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 ...
