Abstract: In [Akbari and Moghaddamfar, Recognizing by order and degree pattern of some projective special linear groups, {it Internat. J. Algebra Comput.}, 2012] the authors possed the following problem: \ {�f Problem.} {it Is there a simple group which is $k$-fold OD-characterizable for $kgeq3?$ } In this paper as the main result we give positive answer to the above problem and we introduce two simple groups which are $k$-fold OD-characterizable such that $kgeq6$. Also in [R. Kogani-Moghadam and A. R. Moghaddamfar, Groups with the same order and degree pattern, {it Science China Mathematics}, 2012], the authors possed two conjectures as follows: \ {�f Conjecture 1.} {it All alternating groups $A_m$ with $mot=10$ are OD-characterizable.} \ {�f Conjecture 2.} {it All symmetric groups $S_m$, with $mot=10$, are $n$-fold OD-characterizable, where $nin1,3$.} In this paper we find some alternating and some symmetric groups such that these conjectures are not true for them.
