Abstract

Denote by w(n) the number of factors in the representation of a positive integer n in the form of a product of primes. For a subgroup >H of a finite group G, we set w(H)=w(|H|) and v(G)= maxw(C(g))| g ∈ G \ Z(G). In the present paper, the complete description of centerfree groups satisfying the condition v(G)= 4 is presented.
