Abstract

We provide structural criteria for some finite factorised groups \(G=AB\) when the conjugacy class sizes in G of certain \(\pi \)-elements in \(A\cup B\) are either \(\pi \)-numbers or \(\pi '\)-numbers, for a set of primes \(\pi \). In particular, we extend for products of groups some earlier results.
