Abstract:

For a finite group $G$‎, ‎let $Cent(G)$ denote the set of centralizers of single elements of $G$‎. ‎In this note we prove that if $|G|leq frac{3}{2}|Cent(G)|$ and $G$ is 2-nilpotent‎, ‎then $Gcong S_3‎, ‎D_{10}$ or $S_3times S_3$‎. ‎This result gives a partial and positive answer to a conjecture raised by A‎. ‎R‎. ‎Ashrafi [On finite groups with a given number of centralizers‎, ‎Algebra‎ ‎Colloq. 7 (2000)‎, ‎no‎. ‎2‎, ‎139--146]‎.

Finite Groups Have Even More Conjugacy Classes * By

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.

Centralizers in Locally Finite Groups

The topic of the present paper is the following question. Let G be a locally finite group admitting an automorphism φ of finite order such that the centralizer CG(φ) satisfies certain finiteness conditions. What impact does this have on the structure of the group G? Equivalently, one can ask the same question when φ is an element of G. Sometimes the impact is quite strong and the paper is a sur...

Finite Groups Have More Conjugacy Classes

We prove that for every > 0 there exists a δ > 0 so that every group of order n ≥ 3 has at least δ log2 n/(log2 log2 n) 3+ conjugacy classes. This sharpens earlier results of Pyber and Keller. Bertram speculates whether it is true that every finite group of order n has more than log3 n conjugacy classes. We answer Bertram’s question in the affirmative for groups with a trivial solvable radical.

Finite groups all of whose proper centralizers are cyclic

‎A finite group $G$ is called a $CC$-group ($Gin CC$) if the centralizer of each noncentral element of $G$ is cyclic‎. ‎In this article we determine all finite $CC$-groups.
