On finite simple groups possessing a conjugacy class of size 3p^n

Abstract

We classify all non-abelian finite simple groups that possess conjugacy classes of size 3pn for some prime p and non-negative integer n. As an application, we study the structure of the normal closure ⟨ gG⟩ of an element g in an arbitrary finite group G, provided that the conjugacy class gG has size 3pn. Specifically, we provide conditions for ⟨ gG⟩ to be solvable and completely determine its quotient modulo the solvable radical in the non-solvable case.
