Nilpotent-factor conjecture for non-commuting graphs

From papers

Let pp be a prime, and suppose that G=P×AG=P\times A is a finite group, where PSylp(G)P\in\operatorname{Syl}_p(G) is non-abelian and AA is an abelian pp'-group. Let ΓK\Gamma_K denote the non-commuting graph of a finite non-abelian group KK, whose vertices are the non-central elements and whose edges join pairs of noncommuting vertices. Nilpotent-factor conjecture. If HH is finite,

ΓGΓHandZ(G)Z(H),\Gamma_G\cong\Gamma_H\quad\text{and}\quad |Z(G)|\geq|Z(H)|,

then H=Q×BH=Q\times B, where qq is a prime, QSylq(H)Q\in\operatorname{Syl}_q(H) is non-abelian, and BB is an abelian qq'-group. In particular, HH is nilpotent. This is proposed as a reduction for the unresolved nilpotency conjecture in the case where the nilpotent group has a unique non-abelian Sylow subgroup.
