What is it about?

Our result states that: if p is a prime number, then the groups Symp are determined up to isomorphism by their order and a special conjugacy class size of (p - 1)!.

Why is it important?

By our result, we can conclude that Thompson's conjecture is valid under a weak condition for the symmetric groups of prime degree.

Perspectives

Is it true this result for the symmetric groups of degree n.
