On the number of groups of order 1024
Author

We report on a recent enumeration of groups of order 1024 which shows that there are 49487367289 groups of this order.

The number of p-groups of order 19,683 and new lists of p-groups
Author

We report on a recent classification of the groups of order 3^9 by rank and p-class which shows that there are 5,937,876,645 groups of this order. In addition, we announce the online-availability of two large families of p-groups.

On groups with few subgroups not in the Chermak-Delgado lattice
Co-Author

We investigate the question of how many subgroups of a finite group are not in its Chermak-Delgado lattice. The Chermak-Delgado lattice for a finite group is a self-dual lattice of subgroups with many intriguing properties. Fasolă and Tărnăuceanu asked how many subgroups are not in the Chermak-Delgado lattice and classified all groups with two or less subgroups not in the Chermak-Delgado lattice. We extend their work by classifying all groups with less than five subgroups not in the Chermak-Delgado lattice. In addition, we show that a group with less than five subgroups not in the Chermak–Delgado lattice is nilpotent. In this vein we also show that the only non-nilpotent group with five or fewer subgroups in the Chermak-Delgado lattice is S_3.
