Review text

Let \(G\) be a non-abelian group and \(Z(G)\) be its center. The non-commuting graph \(\Gamma(G)\) of \(G\) is the graph whose vertex set is \(G\setminus Z(G)\) and two vertices \(x\) and \(y\) are adjacent if and only if \(xy \not = yx\). The non-commuting graph of a group was first considered by Paul Erdős (see [\textit{B. H. Neumann}, J. Aust. Math. Soc., Ser. A 21, 467--472 (1976; Zbl 0333.05110)]). In the paper under review, the author proves that if \(G\) and \(H\) are non-abelian groups with isomorphic non-commuting graphs and \(G\) is nilpotent, then \(H\) is nilpotent, provided \(|Z(G)|\geq |Z (H)|\). This answers a conjecture formulated in [\textit{V. Grazian} and \textit{C. Monetta}, J. Algebra 633, 389--402 (2023; Zbl 1523.20035)].
