let $g$ be a finite $p$-soluble group‎, ‎and $p$ a sylow $p$-sub-group of $g$‎. ‎it is proved‎ ‎that if all elements of $p$ of order $p$ (or of order ${}leq 4$ for $p=2$) are‎ ‎contained in the $k$-th term of the upper central series of $p$‎, ‎then the $p$-length of‎ ‎$g$ is at most $2m+1$‎, ‎where $m$ is the greatest integer such that‎ $p^m-p^{m-1}leq k$‎, ‎and the exponent of the image of $p$...

Neuroblastomas originating from different sites might have different clinical and biological characteristics. In the present study, the clinical (age, sex and stage) and biological (N-myc amplification, Shimada pathology and levels of lactate dehydrogenase, ferritin and neuron-specific enolase) characteristics of patients with newly diagnosed neuroblastoma were compared according to the site of...

Hegyvári and Hennecart showed that if B is a sufficiently large brick of a Heisenberg group, then the product set B ·B contains many cosets of the center of the group. We give a new, robust proof of this theorem that extends to all extra special groups as well as to a large family of quasigroups.

Let $H$, $L$ and $X$ be subgroups of a finite group$G$. Then $H$ is said to be $X$-permutable with $L$ if for some$xin X$ we have $AL^{x}=L^{x}A$. We say that $H$ is emph{$X$-quasipermutable } (emph{$X_{S}$-quasipermutable}, respectively) in $G$ provided $G$ has a subgroup$B$ such that $G=N_{G}(H)B$ and $H$ $X$-permutes with $B$ and with all subgroups (with all Sylowsubgroups, respectively) $...

a $p$-group $g$ is $p$-central if $g^{p}le z(g)$‎, ‎and $g$ is‎ ‎$p^{2}$-abelian if $(xy)^{p^{2}}=x^{p^{2}}y^{p^{2}}$ for all $x,yin‎ ‎g$‎. ‎we prove that for $g$ a finite $p^{2}$-abelian $p$-central‎ ‎$p$-group‎, ‎excluding certain cases‎, ‎the order of $g$ divides the‎ ‎order of $text{aut}(g)$‎.

The Sylow theorems hold for finite extra loops, as does P. Hall’s theorem for finite solvable extra loops. Every finite nonassociative extra loop Q has a nontrivial center, Z(Q). Furthermore, Q/Z(Q) is a group whenever |Q| < 512. Loop extensions are used to construct an infinite nonassociative extra loop with a trivial center and a nonassociative extra loop Q of order 512 such that Q/Z(Q) is no...

a normal subgroup $n$ of a group $g$ is said to be an‎ ‎$emph{omissible}$ subgroup of $g$ if it has the following property‎: ‎whenever $xleq g$ is such that $g=xn$‎, ‎then $g=x$‎. ‎in this note we construct various groups $g$‎, ‎each of which has an omissible subgroup $nneq 1$ such that $g/ncong sl_2(k)$ where $k$ is a field of positive characteristic‎.
