On the number of prime order subgroups of finite groups
Let G be a finite group and let ?(G) be the number of prime order subgroups of G. We determine the groups G with the property ?(G)??G?/2?1, extending earlier work of C. T. C. Wall, and we use our classification to obtain new results on the generation of near-rings by units of prime order.

Abstract

Let G be a finite group and let ?(G) be the number of prime order subgroups of G. We determine the groups G with the property ?(G)??G?/2?1, extending earlier work of C. T. C. Wall, and we use our classification to obtain new results on the generation of near-rings by units of prime order.
