Prime Graphs of Locally Torsion Ultragroups, Metanilpotent Groups, and $T$-Solvable Groups

Abstract

Given a group $G$, the prime graph of $G$, denoted $\Gamma (G)$, is the graph with vertex set the set of primes $p$ such that there exists an element of order $p$ in $G$, and such that there is an edge between primes $p$ and $q$ if and only if there exists an element of order $pq$ in $G$. Let $T$ be nonabelian finite simple group. A $T$-solvable group $G$ is a group such that there exists a finite subnormal series of $G$ such that each factor is either abelian or isomorphic to $T$. In this paper, we continue the classification of the prime graphs of $T$-solvable locally torsion groups and classify prime graphs of locally torsion metanilpotent groups using tools from model theory. We also classify the prime graphs of ultragroups with certain first-order properties and prove results on the number and type of certain classes of groups that can realize a given graph as a prime graph.
