2-parts of real class sizes

Hung P. Tong-Viet

Vol. 12 (2018), No. 10, 2499–2514
Abstract

We investigate the structure of finite groups whose noncentral real class sizes have the same 2-part. In particular, we prove that such groups are solvable and have 2-length one. As a consequence, we show that a finite group is solvable if it has two real class sizes. This confirms a conjecture due to G. Navarro, L.  Sanus and P. Tiep.
