Title COLLINEATION GROUPS OF TRANSLATION PLANES
Classification of non-solvable groups whose power graph is a cograph
Cameron, Manna and Mehatari investigated the question of which finite groups admit a power graph that is a cograph, also called power-cograph groups (Journal of Algebra 591 (2022)). They give a…
On the centralizers of the p-regular elements in a finite group
Let G be a p -solvable finite group for some prime p , $$G_{p'}$$ G p ′ a $$p'$$ p ′ -Hall subgroup of G and x a p -regular element of G . Clearly, $$\langle x\rangle \le C_G(x)\le G$$ ⟨ x ⟩ ≤ C G (…
On finite groups with elements of prime power orders
In this paper we study the finite groups in which every element has prime power order, briefly them EPPO-groups. The classification of EPPO-groups is given including the cases of solvable,…
Groups in which the centralizer of any non-central element is maximal
Abstract Let x be an element of a finite group G. It is clear that 〈x〉≤CG⁢(x)≤G{\langle x\rangle\leq C_{G}(x)\leq G}. For the cases where CG⁢(x)=G{C_{G}(x)=G} and CG⁢(x)=〈x〉{C_{G}(x)=\langle…
Profinite groups with pronilpotent centralizers
The article deals with profinite groups in which the centralizers are pronilpotent (CN-groups). It is shown that such groups are virtually pronilpotent. More precisely, let G be a profinite CN-group,…
Class-Preserving Coleman Automorphisms of Finite Groups with Prescribed Centralizers*
Let G be a finite group. It is proved that any class-preserving Coleman automorphism of G is an inner automorphism whenever G belongs to one of the following two classes of groups: (1) CN-groups,…
The Work of John Griggs Thompson: A Survey
In a burst of activity between the late 1950’s and the early 1980’s, one of the biggest mathematical stories of the twentieth century was told—that of the classification of the finite simple groups.…
Developments in Formal Proofs
TLDR
Today, proof assistants can verify large bodies of advanced mathematics; and as an example, the formal proof in Coq of the Feit-Thompson Odd Order theorem in group theory is turned to.
Finite Simple Groups with Few Orbits under Automorphisms
Let G be a finite simple (nonabelian) group. We denote by ω (G) the number of orbits underAut (G). It has been observed in [16] 2.3 that ω (G) = 4 characterizes the smallest example: G ∼= Alt5. In…
