Recently the following question has been asked: Is it true that for each nonabelian finite simple group $S$ and each $n\\in\\mathbb{N}$, if the set of class sizes of a finite group $G$ with trivial center is the same as the set of class sizes of the direct power $S^n$, then $G\\simeq S^n$? In this paper we approach an answer to this question by proving that $A_6\\times A_6$ is uniquely determined by $N(A_6\\times A_6)$ among finite groups with trivial center.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2022-04-07T11:33:03.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "20E45", "20D60" ], "keywords": [ "conjugacy class sizes", "finite group", "trivial center", "recognition", "nonabelian finite simple group" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
