Abstract: The enhanced power graph mathcalPe(G) of a group G is a graph with vertex set G and two vertices are adjacent if they belong to the same cyclic subgroup. In this paper, we consider the minimum degree, independence number and matching number of enhanced power graphs of finite groups. We first study these graph invariants for mathcalPe(G) when G is any finite group, and then determine them when G is a finite abelian p-group, U6n=langlea,b:a2n=b3=e,ba=ab−1angle, the dihedral group D2n, or the semidihedral group SD8n. If G is any of these groups, we prove that mathcalPe(G) is perfect and then obtain its strong metric dimension. Additionally, we give an expression for the independence number of mathcalPe(G) for any finite abelian group G. These results along with certain known equalities yield the edge connectivity, vertex covering number and edge covering number of enhanced power graphs of the respective groups as well.
