‎Let $G $ be a finite group and $X$ be a conjugacy class of $G.$ The‎ ‎rank of $X$ in $G,$ denoted by $rank(G{:}X),$ is defined to‎ ‎be the minimal number of elements of $X$ generating $G.$ In this‎ ‎paper we establish the ranks of all the conjugacy classes of‎ ‎elements for simple alternating group $A_{10}$ using the structure‎ ‎constants method and other results established in‎ ‎[A.B.M‎. ‎Bas...

‎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.

We prove that finite index subgroups of right angled Artin groups are conjugacy separable. We then apply this result to establish various properties of other classes of groups. In particular, we show that any word hyperbolic Coxeter group contains a conjugacy separable subgroup of finite index and has a residually finite outer automorphism group. Another consequence of the main result is that B...

In his paper ”Finite groups have many conjugacy classes” (J. London Math. Soc (2) 46 (1992), 239-249), L. Pyber proved the to date best general lower bounds for the number of conjugacy classes of a finite group in terms of the order of the group. In this paper we strengthen the main results in Pyber’s paper.

We establish the first super-logarithmic lower bound for the number of conjugacy classes of a finite nilpotent group. In particular, for any constant c there are only finitely many finite p-groups of order pm with at most c ·m conjugacy classes. This answers a question of L. Pyber.

We construct a hyperbolic group containing a finitely presented subgroup, which has infinitely many conjugacy classes of finite-order elements. We also use a version of Morse theory with high dimensional horizontal cells and use handle cancellation arguments to produce other examples of subgroups of CAT(0) groups with infinitely many conjugacy classes of finite-order elements.

a group g is said to be a (pf)c-group or to have polycyclic-by-finite conjugacy classes, if g/c_{g}(x^{g}) is a polycyclic-by-finite group for all xin g. this is a generalization of the familiar property of being an fc-group. de falco et al. (respectively, de giovanni and trombetti) studied groups whose proper subgroups of infinite rank have finite (respectively, polycyclic) conjugacy classes. ...
