{"title":"On finite groups whose power graph is claw-free","authors":"Pallabi Manna, Santanu Mandal, Andrea Lucchini","doi":"arxiv-2407.20110","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/arxiv-2407.20110","url":null,"abstract":"A graph is called claw-free if it contains no induced subgraph isomorphic to\u0000the complete bipartite graph $K_{1, 3}$. The undirected power graph of a group\u0000$G$ has vertices the elements of $G$, with an edge between $g_1$ and $g_2$ if\u0000one of the two cyclic subgroups $langle g_1rangle, langle g_2rangle$ is\u0000contained in the other. It is denoted by $P(G)$. The reduced power graph,\u0000denoted by $P^*(G),$ is the subgraph of $P(G)$ induced by the non-identity\u0000elements. The main purpose of this paper is to explore the finite groups whose\u0000reduced power graph is claw-free. In particular we prove that if $P^*(G)$ is\u0000claw-free, then either $G$ is solvable or $G$ is an almost simple group. In the\u0000second case the socle of $G$ is isomorphic to $PSL(2,q)$ for suitable choices\u0000of $q$. Finally we prove that if $P^*(G)$ is claw-free, then the order of $G$\u0000is divisible by at most 5 different primes.","PeriodicalId":501037,"journal":{"name":"arXiv - MATH - Group Theory","volume":"168 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141862900","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
