Characterization of the Group A5 × A5 × A5 by the Set of Conjugacy Class Sizes
摘要
For a finite group G, we denote by N (G) the set of its conjugacy class sizes. Recently, the following question was posed: given any n ∈ ℕ and an arbitrary non-Abelian finite simple group S, is it true that G ≃ Sn if G is a group with trivial center and N (G) = N (Sn)? The answer to this question is known for all simple groups S with n = 1, and also for S ∈ {A5, A6}, where Ak denotes the alternating group of degree k, with n = 2. It is proved that the group A5 × A5 × A5 is uniquely defined by the set N (A5 × A5 × A5) in the class of finite groups with trivial center.
