Let $G$ be a topological group and let $K,Lsubseteq G$ be closed subgroups, with $Ksubseteq L$. We prove that if $L$ is a locally compact pro-Lie group, then the map $q:G/Kto G/L$ is a fibration. As an application of this, we obtain two older results by Skljarenko, Madison and Mostert.

In this paper we present some geometrical representations of the Frobenius group of order $21$ (henceforth, $F_{21}$). The main focus is on investigating the group of common automorphisms of two orthogonal Fano planes and the automorphism group of a suitably oriented Fano plane. We show that both groups are isomorphic to $F_{21},$ independently of the choice of the two orthogonal Fano planes and of the choice of the orientation. We show, moreover, that any triangular embedding of the complete graph $K_7$ into a surface is isomorphic to the classical toroidal biembedding and hence is face $2$-colorable, with the two color classes defining a pair of orthogonal Fano planes. As a consequence, we show that, for any triangular embedding of $K_7$ into a surface, the group of the automorphisms that preserve the color classes is the Frobenius group of order $21.$ This way we provide three geometrical representations of $F_{21}$. Also, we apply the representation in terms of two orthogonal Fano planes to give an alternative proof that $F_{21}$ is the automorphism group of the Kirkman triple system of order $15$ that is usually denoted as #61.

Let $G$ be a group. Associate a graph $mathcal{E}_G$ (called the co-Engel graph of $G$) with $G$ whose vertex set is $G$ and two distinct vertices $x$ and $y$ are adjacent if $[x, {}_k y] neq 1$ and $[y, {}_k x] neq 1$ for all positive integer $k$. This graph, under the name ``Engel graph'', was introduced by Abdollahi. Let $L(G)$ be the set of all left Engel elements of $G$. In this paper, we realize the induced subgraph of co-Engel graphs of certain finite non-Engel groups $G$ induced by $G setminus L(G)$. We write $mathcal{E}^-(G)$ to denote the subgraph of $mathcal{E}_G$ induced by $G setminus L(G)$. We also compute genus, various spectra, energies and Zagreb indices of $mathcal{E}^-(G)$ for those groups. As a consequence, we determine (up to isomorphism) all finite non-Engel group $G$ such that the clique number is at most $4$ and $mathcal{E}^-$ is toroidal or projective. Further, we show that $coeng{G}$ is super integral and satisfies the E-LE conjecture and the Hansen--Vuki{v{c}}evi{'c} conjecture for the groups considered in this paper.

A positive integer $m$ is called a Hall number if any finite group of order precisely divisible by $m$ has a Hall subgroup of order $m$. We prove that, except for the obvious examples, the three integers $12$, $24$ and $60$ are the only Hall numbers, solving a problem proposed by Jiping Zhang.

In this paper it is shown that for the natural density (among the positive integers) of the orders of the finite quotients of every ordinary triangle group is zero, using a modification of a component of a 1976 theorem of Bertram on large cyclic subgroups of finite groups, and the Turan-Kubilius inequality from asymptotic number theory. This answers a challenging question raised by Tucker, based on some work for special cases by May and Zimmerman and himself.

Let $A$ and $G$ be finite groups such that $A$ acts coprimely on $G$ by automorphisms. We provide a complete classification of a finite group $G$ in which every maximal $A$-invariant subgroup containing the normalizer of some $A$-invariant Sylow subgroup is nilpotent. Moreover, we show that both the hypothesis that every maximal $A$-invariant subgroup of $G$ containing the normalizer of some $A$-invariant Sylow subgroup is nilpotent and the hypothesis that every non-nilpotent maximal $A$-invariant subgroup of $G$ is normal are equivalent.

The ideal membership problem asks whether an element in the ring belongs to the given ideal. In this paper, we propose a function that reflecting the complexity of the ideal membership problem in the ring of Laurent polynomials with integer coefficients. We also connect the complexity function we define to the Dehn function of a metabelian group, in the hope of constructing a metabelian group with superexponential Dehn function.

This paper targets to generalize the notion of Hopfian groups in the commutative case by defining the so-called {bf relatively Hopfian groups} and {bf weakly Hopfian groups}, and establishing some their crucial properties and characterizations. Specifically, we prove that for a reduced Abelian $p$-group $G$ such that $p^{omega}G$ is Hopfian (in particular, is finite), the notions of relative Hopficity and ordinary Hopficity do coincide. We also show that if $G$ is a reduced Abelian $p$-group such that $p^{omega}G$ is bounded and $G/p^{omega}G$ is Hopfian, then $G$ is relatively Hopfian. This allows us to construct a reduced relatively Hopfian Abelian $p$-group $G$ with $p^{omega}G$ an infinite elementary group such that $G$ is {bf not} Hopfian. In contrast, for reduced torsion-free groups, we establish that the relative and ordinary Hopficity are equivalent. Moreover, the mixed case is explored as well, showing that the structure of both relatively and weakly Hopfian groups can be quite complicated.
