On a generalization of a theorem of Burnside
summary:A theorem of Burnside asserts that a finite group is \mbox {-nilpotent} if for some prime a Sylow \mbox {-subgroup} of lies in the center of its normalizer. In this paper, let be a finite group and the smallest prime divisor of , the order of . Let . As a generalization of Burnside's theorem, it is shown that if every non-cyclic \mbox {-subgroup} of is self-normalizing or normal in then is solvable. In particular, if , where for and for , then is \mbox {-nilpotent} or \mbox {-closed}
On the Set of the Numbers of Conjugates of Noncyclic Proper Subgroups of Finite Groups
Let G be a finite group and (G) the set of the numbers of conjugates of noncyclic proper subgroups of G. We prove that (1) if |(G)|≤2, then G is solvable, and (2) G is a nonsolvable group with |(G)|=3 if and only if G≅PSL(2,5) or PSL(2,13) or SL(2,5) or SL(2,13)
Phase Fluctuation Analysis in Functional Brain Networks of Scaling EEG for Driver Fatigue Detection
The characterization of complex patterns arising from electroencephalogram (EEG) is an important problem with significant applications in identifying different mental states. Based on the operational EEG of drivers, a method is proposed to characterize and distinguish different EEG patterns. The EEG measurements from seven professional taxi drivers were collected under different states. The phase characterization method was used to calculate the instantaneous phase from the EEG measurements. Then, the optimization of drivers’ EEG was realized through performing common spatial pattern analysis. The structures and scaling components of the brain networks from optimized EEG measurements are sensitive to the EEG patterns. The effectiveness of the method is demonstrated, and its applicability is articulated.</p
Finite groups with few vanishing elements
Let G be a finite group, and Irr(G) the set of irreducible complex characters of G. We say that an element g G is a vanishing element of G if there exists χ in Irr(G) such that χ(g)= 0. Let Van(G) denote the set of vanishing elements of G, that is, Van(G)= {g G|χ(g)=0 for some χ Irr (G)}. In this paper, we investigate the finite groups G with the following property: Van(G) contains at most four conjugacy classes of G

Tetragonal Mexican-Hat Dispersion and Switchable Half-Metal State with Multiple Anisotropic Weyl Fermions in Penta-Graphene
In past decades, the ever-expanding library of 2D carbon allotropes has
yielded a broad range of exotic properties for the future carbon-based
electronics. However, the known allotropes are all intrinsic nonmagnetic due to
the paired valence electrons configuration. Based on the reported 2D carbon
structure database and first-principles calculations, herein we demonstrate
that inherent ferromagnetism can be obtained in the prominent allotrope,
penta-graphene, which has an unique Mexican-hat valence band edge, giving rise
to van Hove singularities and electronic instability. Induced by modest
hole-doping, being achievable in electrolyte gate, the semiconducting
pentagraphene can transform into different ferromagnetic half-metals with room
temperature stability and switchable spin directions. In particular, multiple
anisotropic Weyl states, including type-I and type-II Weyl cones and hybrid
quasi Weyl nodal loop, can be found in a sizable energy window of spin-down
half-metal under proper strains. These findings not only identify a promising
carbon allotrope to obtain the inherent magnetism for carbon-based spintronic
devices, but highlight the possibility to realize different Weyl states by
combining the electronic and mechanical means as well
