let g be a finite group and let $gk(g)$ be the prime graph of g. we assume that $n$ is an odd number. in this paper, we show that if $gk(g)=gk(b_n(p))$, where $ngeq 9$ and $pin {3,5,7}$, then g has a unique nonabelian composition factor isomorphic to $b_n(p)$ or $c_n(p)$ . as consequences of our result, $b_n(p)$ is quasirecognizable by its spectrum and also by a new proof, the validity of a con...

given a non-abelian finite group $g$, let $pi(g)$ denote the set of prime divisors of the order of $g$ and denote by $z(g)$ the center of $g$. thetextit{ prime graph} of $g$ is the graph with vertex set $pi(g)$ where two distinct primes $p$ and $q$ are joined by an edge if and only if $g$ contains an element of order $pq$ and the textit{non-commuting graph} of $g$ is the graph with the vertex s...

Let $G$ be a finite group and let $GK(G)$ be the prime graph of $G$. We assume that $ngeqslant 5 $ is an odd number. In this paper, we show that the simple groups $B_n(3)$ and $C_n(3)$ are 2-recognizable by their prime graphs. As consequences of the result, the characterizability of the groups $B_n(3)$ and $C_n(3)$ by their spectra and by the set of orders of maximal abelian subgroups are ...

The Robust Coloring Problem (RCP) is a generalization of the well-known Graph Coloring Problem where we seek for a solution that remains valid when extra edges are added. The RCP is used in scheduling of events with possible last-minute changes and study frequency assignments of the electromagnetic spectrum. This problem has been proved as NP-hard and in instances larger than 30 vertices, meta-...
