Abstract

In this paper we introduce the graph Γsc(G) associated with a group G, called the solvable conjugacy class graph (abbreviated as SCC-graph), whose vertices are the nontrivial conjugacy classes of G and two distinct conjugacy classes C,D are adjacent if there exist x∈C and y∈D such that 〈x,y〉 is solvable.We discuss the connectivity, girth, clique number, and several other properties of the SCC-graph. One of our results asserts that there are only finitely many finite groups whose SCC-graph has given clique number d, and we find explicitly the list of such groups with d=2. We pose some problems on the relation of the SCC-graph to the solvable graph and to the NCC-graph, which we cannot solve.
