β¦ Synopsis
We study the number of homomorphisms from a finite group to a general linear group over a finite field. In particular, we give a generating function of such numbers. Then the Rogers-Ramanujan identities are applicable.

In 1991 Dixon and Kovacs 8 showed that for each field K which has finite degree over its prime subfield there is a number d such that every K finite nilpotent irreducible linear group of degree n G 2 over K can be w x wx ' generated by d nr log n elements.

We prove that the analog of the Grushko-Neumann theorem does not hold for profinite free products of profinite groups. To do that we bound the number of generators of a finite group generated by a family of subgroups of pairwise coprime orders.
## Abstract The main objective of this paper is to study and describe the hypercentre of a finite group associated with saturated formations, in terms of some subgroup embedding properties related to permutability. (Β© 2008 WILEYβVCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
Let G be a finite group and a set of primes. In this note we will prove Ε½ . two results on the local control of k G, , the number of conjugacy w x classes of -elements in G. Our results will generalize earlier ones in 8 , w x w x 9 , and 3 . Ε½ . Ε½ . In the following, we denote by F F G the poset of
