Abstract

In this paper as the main result, we show that if $G$ is a finite group such that $\Gamma (G) =  \Gamma (^2 D_{p}(3))$, where $p = 2^{n} + 1$, $(n \geq 2)$ is a prime number, then $G$ has a unique non-abelian composition factor isomorphic to $(^2 D_{p}(3))$. We also show that if $G$ is a finite group satisfying $\vert G \vert = \vert^2D_{p}(3) \vert$ and $\Gamma (G) = \Gamma (^2D_{p}(3))$, then $G \cong ^2 D_{p}(3)$. As a consequence of our result we give a new proof for a conjecture of W. J. Shi and J. X. Bi [A characteristic property for each finite projective special linear group, in Groups—Canberra 1989, 171–180, Lecture Notes in Math., 1456, Springer, Berlin] for $^2 D_{p}(3)$. Application of this result to the problem of recognition of finite simple groups by the set of element orders are also considered.
