Permutability degrees of finite groups

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: Given a finite group G, we introduce the extit{permutability degree} of G, as pd(G)=frac{1}{|G| |mathcal{L}(G)|} {underset{X in mathcal{L}(G)}sum}|P_G(X)|, where mathcalL(G) is the subgroup lattice of G and PG(X) the permutizer of the subgroup X in G, that is, the subgroup generated by all cyclic subgroups of G that permute with XinmathcalL(G). The number pd(G) allows us to find some structural restrictions on G. Successively, we investigate the relations between pd(G), the probability of commuting subgroups sd(G) of G and the probability of commuting elements d(G) of G. Proving some inequalities between pd(G), sd(G) and d(G), we correlate these notions.
