Abstract

Let G be a group. If the set 𝒜(G) = {α ∈Aut(G) | xα(x) = α(x)x, for all x ∈ G} forms a subgroup of Aut(G), then G is called 𝒜(G)-group. We show that the minimum order of a non-𝒜(G) p-group is p 5 for any prime p. We also find the smallest group order of a non-𝒜(G) group. This is related to a question introduced by Deaconescu, Silberberg, and Walls [4]. Moreover, we prove that for any prime p and for all integer n ≥ 5, there exists a non-𝒜(G) group of order p n .
