Abstract: Let alpha be a coprime automorphism of a group G of prime order and let P be an alpha-invariant Sylow p-subgroup of G. Assume that potinpi(CG(alpha)). Firstly, we prove that G is p-nilpotent if and only if CNG(P)(alpha) centralizes P. In the case that G is Sz(2r) and PSL(2,2r)-free where r=|alpha|, we show that G is p-closed if and only if CG(alpha) normalizes P. As a consequences of these two results, we obtain that GcongPimesH for a group H if and only if CG(alpha) centralizes P. We also prove a generalization of the Frobenius p-nilpotency theorem for groups admitting a group of automorphisms of coprime order.
