OD-characterization of alternating and symmetric groups of degrees 16 and 22. (Q1034899): Difference between revisions

Let \(G\) be a finite group and \(\pi(G)=\{p_1,\dots,p_k\}\) the set of all prime divisors of \(|G|\) where \(p_1<\cdots<p_k\). The \(k\)-tuple \(D(G)=(\deg(p_1),\dots,\deg(p_k))\) where \(\deg(p)\) is the degree of \(p\) in the prime graph of \(G\) is called the degree pattern of \(G\). A group \(G\) is called \(n\)-fold OD-characterizable if there exist exactly \(n\) non-isomorphic groups \(H\) such that \(|H|=|G|\) and \(D(H)=D(G)\). The authors prove that the alternating group \(A_{22}\), the symmetric groups \(S_{16}\) and \(S_{22}\) are \(n\)-fold OD-characterizable where \(n=1\), \(3\) and \(3\), respectively.
