A GENERALIZED FIXED-POINT-FREE ACTION

In this paper we study the structure of a finite group G admitting a solvable group A of automorphisms of coprime order so that for any x epsilon C-G(A) of prime order or of order 4, every conjugate of x in G is also contained in C-G(A). Under this hypothesis it is proven that the subgroup [G, A] is solvable. Also an upper bound for the nilpotent height of [G, A] in terms of the number of primes dividing the order of A is obtained in the case where A is abelian.

Action of a Frobenius-like group with kernel having central derived subgroup
Ercan, Gülin (2016-09-01)
A finite group FH is said to be Frobenius-like if it has a nontrivial nilpotent normal subgroup F with a nontrivial complement H such that [F, h] = F for all nonidentity elements h is an element of H. Suppose that a finite group G admits a Frobenius-like group of auto-morphisms FH of coprime order with [F', H] = 1. In case where C-G( F) = 1 we prove that the groups G and C-G( H) have the same nilpotent length under certain additional assumptions.
A generalized fixed point free automorphism of prime power order
Ercan, Gülin (2012-06-01)
Let G be a finite group and alpha be an automorphism of G of order p(n) for an odd prime p. Suppose that alpha acts fixed point freely on every alpha-invariant p'-section of G, and acts trivially or exceptionally on every elementary abelian alpha-invariant p-section of G. It is proved that G is a solvable p-nilpotent group of nilpotent length at most n + 1, and this bound is best possible.
Action of a Frobenius-like group
Güloǧlu, Ismail Ş.; Ercan, Gülin (2014-03-15)
We call a finite group Frobenius-like if it has a nontrivial nilpotent normal subgroup F possessing a nontrivial complement H such that [F, h] = F for all nonidentity elements h is an element of H. We prove that any irreducible nontrivial FH-module for a Frobenius-like group FH of odd order over an algebraically closed field has an H-regular direct summand if either F is fixed point free on V or F acts nontrivially on V and the characteristic of the field is coprime to the order of F. Some consequences of t...
Good action of a nilpotent group with regular orbits
Ercan, Gülin; GÜLOĞLU, İSMAİL ŞUAYİP (2022-04-01)
Suppose that A is a finite nilpotent group of odd order having a good action, in the sense of [1], on the group G of odd order. Under some additional assumptions we prove that the Fitting height of G is bounded above by the sum of the numbers of primes dividing vertical bar A vertical bar and vertical bar C-G(A)vertical bar counted with multiplicities.
NILPOTENT LENGTH OF A FINITE SOLVABLE GROUP WITH A FROBENIUS GROUP OF AUTOMORPHISMS
Ercan, Gülin; Ogut, Elif (2014-01-01)
We prove that a finite solvable group G admitting a Frobenius group FH of automorphisms of coprime order with kernel F and complement H such that [G, F] = G and C-CG(F) (h) = 1 for all nonidentity elements h is an element of H, is of nilpotent length equal to the nilpotent length of the subgroup of fixed points of H.
