‎there are a few finite groups that are determined up to isomorphism solely by their order, such as $mathbb{z}_{2}$ or $mathbb{z}_{15}$. still other finite groups are determined by their order together with other data, such as the number of elements of each order, the structure of the prime graph, the number of order components, the number of sylow $p$-subgroups for each prime $p$, etc. in this...

Abstract In this paper, we study the number of conjugacy classes maximal cyclic subgroups a finite group

We construct a CAT(0) group containing a finitely presented subgroup with infinitely many conjugacy classes of finiteorder elements. Unlike previous examples (which were based on right-angled Artin groups) our ambient CAT(0) group does not contain any rank 3 free abelian subgroups. We also construct examples of groups of type Fn inside mapping class groups, Aut(Fk), and Out(Fk) which have infin...

By algebraic group theory, there is a map from the semisimple conjugacy classes of a finite group of Lie type to the conjugacy classes of the Weyl group. Picking a semisimple class uniformly at random yields a probability measure on conjugacy classes of the Weyl group. We conjecture that this measure agrees with a second measure on conjugacy classes of the Weyl group induced by a construction o...

The lattices of eightand ten-dimensional Euclidean space with irreducible automorphism group or, equivalently, the conjugacy classes of these groups in GL„(Z) for n = 8, 10, are classified in this paper. The number of types is 52 in the case n = 8 , and 47 in the case n = 10. As a consequence of this classification one has 26, resp. 46, conjugacy classes of maximal finite irreducible subgroups ...

Let G be a finite group and H a normal subgroup such that G/H is cyclic. Given a conjugacy class g of G we define its centralizing subgroup to be HCG(g). Let K be such that H ≤ K ≤ G. We show that the G-conjugacy classes contained in K whose centralizing subgroup is K, are equally distributed between the cosets of H in K. The proof of this result is entirely elementary. As an application we fin...

By constructing, in the relative case, objects analoguous to Rips and Sela’s canonical representatives, we prove that the set of conjugacy classes of images by morphisms without accidental parabolic, of a finitely presented group in a relatively hyperbolic group, is finite. An important result of W.Thurston is : Theorem 0.1 ([T] 8.8.6) Let S be any hyperbolic surface of finite area, and N any g...

Let G be a group. Two elements x, y are said to be in the same z-class if their centralizers are conjugate in G. The conjugacy classes give a partition of G. Further decomposition of the conjugacy classes into z-classes provides an important information about the internal structure of the group. Let V be a vector space of dimension n over a field F of characteristic different from 2. Let B be a...
