In this paper, we show that $A_4$ is the only finite group with exactly two conjugacy classes of the same size having some non-real linear characters.

In this paper, we consider conjugacy of subgroups of some split metacyclic groups of odd prime power order to determine the numbers of conjugacy classes of subgroups of those groups. The study was motivated by the linear isomorphism problem of metacyclic primitive linear groups.

In this paper we provide a rigorous proof for the fact that there are exactly 8 connected Alexander quandles of order $2^5$ by combining properties of fixed point free automorphisms of finite abelian 2-groups and the classification of conjugacy classes of GL(5, 2). Furthermore we verify that six of the eight associated Alexander modules are simple, whereas the other two are semisimple.

Let G denote either of the groups $GL_2(q)$ or $SL_2(q)$. The mapping $theta$ sending a matrix to its transpose-inverse is an auto-mophism of G and therefore we can form the group $G^+$ = G.<$theta$>. In this paper conjugacy classes of elements in $G^+$ -G are found. These classes are closely related to the congruence classes of invert-ible matrices in G.

In this paper, we introduce a length function for elements of the imprimitive complex reflection group G(m, 1, n) and study its properties. Furthermore, we show that every conjugacy class of G(m, 1, n) can be represented by an admissible diagram. The corresponding results for Weyl groups are well known.

Investigation of the number of representations as well as of projective representations of a finite group has been important object since the early of this century. The numbers are very related to the number of conjugacy classes of G, so that this gives some informations on finite groups and on group characters. A generally well-known fact is that the number of non-equivlaent irreducible representations, which we shall write as n.i.r. of G is less than or equal to the number of conjugacy classes of G, and the equality holds over an algebraically closed field of characteristic not dividing $\mid$G$\mid$. A remarkable result on the numbers due to Reynolds can be stated as follows.

We classify all conjugacy classes of 3-braids that are related by flypes on representatives. Among them we determine which classes have representatives that admit both (+) and (-) flypes as an effort to search for a potential example of a pair of transversal knots that are topologically isotopic and have the same Bennequin number but are not transversally isotopic.

Let G be a finite group and N be a normal subgroup of G. We denote by ncc(N) the number of conjugacy classes of N in G and N is called n-decomposable, if ncc(N) = n. Set $K_{G}\;=\;\{ncc(N)$\mid$N{\lhd}G\}$. Let X be a non-empty subset of positive integers. A group G is called X-decomposable, if KG = X. In this paper we characterise the {1, 3, 4}-decomposable finite non-perfect groups. We prove that such a group is isomorphic to Small Group (36, 9), the $9^{th}$ group of order 36 in the small group library of GAP, a metabelian group of order $2^n{2{\frac{n-1}{2}}\;-\;1)$, in which n is odd positive integer and $2{\frac{n-1}{2}}\;-\;1$ is a Mersenne prime or a metabelian group of order $2^n(2{\frac{n}{3}}\;-\;1)$, where 3$\mid$n and $2\frac{n}{3}\;-\;1$ is a Mersenne prime. Moreover, we calculate the set $K_{G}$, for some finite group G.

Let G be a finite group with k distinct conjugacy classes $C_1, C_2, \cdots, C_k$ and F an algebraically closed field such that char$(F){\dag}\left$\mid$ G \right$\mid$$. We denoted by $Irr_F$(G) the set of all irreducible F-characters of G and $Cf_F$(G) the set of all class functions of G into F. Then $Cf_F$(G) is a commutative F-algebra with an F-basis $Irr_F(G) = {\chi_1, \chi_2, \cdots, \chi_k}$.

In this paper we provide examples of pairs of conformally non-equivalent, but topologically equivalent, p-groups $H_1$, $H_2$ < Aut(S), where S is a closed Riemann surface of genus g ${\geq}$ 2, so that $S/H_j$ has genus zero and all its cone points are of order equal to p.
