One of the most useful theorems in classical representation theory is a result due to N. Ito, which can be stated using the classification of the finite simple groups in the following way.THEOREM (N. Ito, G. Michler). Let Irr (G) be the set of all irreducible complex characters of the finite group G and q be a prime number. Then if and only if G has a normal, abelian Sylow-q-subgroup.

In this paper, we first determine the structure of the Sylow p-subgroup P of a finite group G containing no elements of order 2p (p > 2), and then show that the Broué Abelian Defect Groups Conjecture is true for the principal p-block of G. The result depends on the classification of finite simple groups.

Let G be a finite group and p an odd prime. Let [Formula: see text] be the set of proper subgroups M of G with |G:M| not a prime power and |G:M|p=1. In this paper, we investigate the structure of G if every member of [Formula: see text] is nilpotent. In particular, a new characterization of PSL(2,7) is obtained. The proof of the theorem depends on the classification of finite simple groups.

A supercharacter theory for a finite group [Formula: see text] is a set of superclasses each of which is a union of conjugacy classes together with a set of sums of irreducible characters called supercharacters that together satisfy certain compatibility conditions. The aim of this paper is to give a description of some finite simple groups with exactly three or four supercharacter theories.

AbstractBaumslag and Wiegold have recently proven that a finite group G is nilpotent if and only if o(xy) = o(x)o(y) for every x, y ∈ G with (o(x), o(y)) = 1. Motivated by this surprisingly new result, we have obtained related results that just consider sets of prime divisors of element orders. For instance, the first of our main results asserts that G is nilpotent if and only if π(o(xy)) = π(o(x)o(y)) for every x, y ∈ G of prime power order with (o(x), o(y)) = 1. As an immediate consequence, we recover the Baumslag–Wiegold Theorem. While this result is still elementary, we also obtain local versions that, for instance, characterize the existence of a normal Sylow p-subgroup in terms of sets of prime divisors of element orders. These results are deeper and our proofs rely on results that depend on the classification of finite simple groups.

AbstractA subgroup H of a group G is said to be pronormal in G if H and {H^{g}} are conjugate in {\langle H,H^{g}\rangle} for every {g\in G}. In this paper, we determine the finite simple groups of type {E_{6}(q)} and {{}^{2}E_{6}(q)} in which all the subgroups of odd index are pronormal. Thus, we complete a classification of finite simple exceptional groups of Lie type in which all the subgroups of odd index are pronormal.

Let G be a finite group. The prime graph Γ(G) of G is defined as follows. The vertices of Γ(G) are the primes dividing the order of G and two distinct vertices p, p′ are joined by an edge if there is an element in G of order pp′. In [G. Y. Chen et al., Recognition of the finite almost simple groups PGL2(q) by their spectrum, Journal of Group Theory, 10 (2007) 71–85], it is proved that PGL(2, pk), where p is an odd prime and k > 1 is an integer, is recognizable by its spectrum. It is proved that if p > 19 is a prime number which is not a Mersenne or Fermat prime and Γ(G) = Γ(PGL(2, p)), then G has a unique nonabelian composition factor which is isomorphic to PSL(2, p). In this paper as the main result, we show that if p is an odd prime and k > 1 is an odd integer, then PGL(2, pk) is uniquely determined by its prime graph and so these groups are characterizable by their prime graphs.

In this paper, we study the problem of how a finite group can be generated by some subgroups. In order to the finite simple groups, we show that any finite non-abelian simple group can be generated by two Sylow p1 - and p_2 -subgroups, where p_1  and p_2  are two different primes. We also show that for a given different prime numbers p  and q , any finite group can be generated by a Sylow p -subgroup and a q -subgroup.

Given an odd prime $p$ , we investigate the position of simple modules in the stable Auslander–Reiten quiver of the principal block of a finite group with noncyclic abelian Sylow $p$ -subgroups. In particular, we prove a reduction to finite simple groups. In the case that the characteristic is $3$ , we prove that simple modules in the principal block all lie at the end of their components.

In 2014, Baumslag and Wiegold proved that a finite group G is nilpotent if and only if o(xy) = o(x)o(y) for every x, y ∈ G with (o(x), o(y)) = 1. This has led to a number of results that characterize the nilpotence of a group (or the existence of nilpotent Hall subgroups, or the existence of normal Hall subgroups) in terms of prime divisors of element orders. Here, we look at these results with a new twist. The first of our main results asserts that G is nilpotent if and only if o(xy) ⩽ o(x)o(y) for every x, y ∈ G of prime power order with (o(x), o(y)) = 1. As an immediate consequence, we recover the Baumslag–Wiegold theorem. The proof of this result is elementary. We prove some variations of this result that depend on the classification of finite simple groups.
