Finite groups in which every proper characteristic subgroup is cyclic
Marco Damele, Fabio Mastrogiacomo
Let be a finite non-cyclic, non-characteristically simple group with the property that all proper characteristic subgroups of are cyclic. We call such a group $\mathrm{CCS}…
On the base size and minimal degree of transitive groups
Lorenzo Guerra, Attila Maróti, Fabio Mastrogiacomo +1
Let be a permutation group, and denote with and its minimal degree and base size respectively. We show that for every , there exists a transitive p…
Counting subgroups of a finite group containing a prescribed subgroup
Lorenzo Guerra, Fabio Mastrogiacomo, Pablo Spiga
Let be a finite group, and let be a subgroup of . We show that there are at most \[ 7.3722[R:T]^{\frac{\log_2[R:T]}{4}+1.8919} \] subgroups of containing .
On the minimal degree and base size of finite primitive groups
Fabio Mastrogiacomo
Let be a finite permutation group acting on . A base for is a subset such that the pointwise stabilizer is the identity. The base size of ,…
