Bounded-orbit lattice representations of finite groups
JiaLi Du, Andrea Lucchini, Joy Morris +1
For a finite group , let denote the minimum number of orbits on the elements of a finite lattice with . Babai and Goodman conjectured th…
Virtually generating graphs of pro- groups
Yiftach Barnea, Andrea Lucchini, Margherita Piccolo +1
We study the virtually generating graph of pro- groups. We show that various classes of pro- groups have connected virtually generating graph and we bound its diameter in the…
Supersoluble groups and the probability of generating a supersoluble subgroup
Andrea Lucchini
Let be a finite group and let denote the probability that two randomly chosen elements of generate a supersoluble subgroup. We prove that if $…
Sectionally indecomposable groups
Andrea Lucchini, Nowras Otmen
We introduce the notion of sectional indecomposability and study it for finite groups: a group is sectionally indecomposable if, whenever is a section of a direct product $…
On the density of Sylow numbers
Andrea Lucchini, Pablo Spiga
Let be a prime number. We say that a positive integer is a Sylow -number if there exists a finite group having exactly Sylow -subgroups. When , every odd int…
Profinite groups with many elements with large nilpotentizer and generalizations
Martino Garonzi, Andrea Lucchini, Nowras Otmen
Given a profinite group and a family of finite groups closed under taking subgroups, direct products and quotients, denote by the set of elements…
Commutators between coprime order elements in non-abelian simple groups
Andrea Lucchini, Pablo Spiga
Recent investigations on the set of commutators between the elements of a finite group having relatively prime orders have prompt us to propose a variant of the Ore conjecture: For…
The Chebotarev invariant for direct products of nonabelian finite simple groups
Jessica Anzanello, Andrea Lucchini, Gareth Tracey
A subset of a finite group invariably generates if generates for every choice of . The Chebotarev…
-elements in profinite groups
Andrea Lucchini, Nowras Otmen
We investigate some properties of the -elements of a profinite group . We prove that if is odd and the probability that a randomly chosen element of is a -element…
Commuting probability for the Sylow subgroups of a finite group
Eloisa Detomi, Andrea Lucchini, Marta Morigi +1
For subsets of a finite group , let denote the probability that two random elements and commute. Obviously, a finite group is nilpotent if…
On the diameter of Engel graphs
Andrea Lucchini, Pablo Spiga
Given a finite group , the Engel graph of is a directed graph encoding pairs of elements satisfying some Engel word. Namely, is the directed graph, where the v…
Solubilizers in profinite groups
Andrea Lucchini
The solubilizer of an element of a profinite group is the set of the elements of such that the subgroup of generated by and is prosoluble. We propose th…
