Abstract [en]
We investigate the structure of finite groups of order 𝑝3𝑞, where 𝑝 and 𝑞 are distinct prime numbers. Under the arithmetic conditions 𝑞 ≠1 (mod 𝑝) and 𝑝 ≠1 (mod 𝑞), and assuming that the center of the group has order divisible by 𝑝2, we prove that such groups must be abelian. As a consequence, we classify all possible isomorphism types using the Fundamental Theorem of Finite Abelian Groups. We also discuss the situation in which the centrality assumption is removed and explain how non-abelian examples may arise.
