Summary
Abstract
Let G be a finite group and Chi(G) some quantitative sets. In this paper we study the influence of Chi(G) to the structure of G. We present a survey of author and his colleagues' recent works.

Let G be a finite group and Ch(G) be one of the following sets:
(a) Ch1(G) = |G|, that is, the order of G;
(b) Ch2(G) = πe(G) = {o(g) | g ∈ G}, that is, the set of element orders of G;
(c) Ch3(G) = cs(G) = {|gG| | g ∈ G}, that is, the set of conjugacy class sizes of G;
(d) Ch4(G) = cd(G), that is, the set of irreducible character degrees of G.
Our aim is to study the structure of G under certain arithmetical hypotheses of Chi(G), i = 1, 2, 3 or 4. Further to the above quantitative sets, we may define Ch5(G) to be the set of the maximal subgroup orders of G (see), Ch6(G) to be the set of Sylow normalizer orders of G (see), and other quantitative sets (for example, see). In this paper we discuss the cases of Chi(G), i = 1, 2, 3 or 4, especially for the cases of i = 1, 2.
