Abstract :Let G be a finite group. If A and B are two conjugacy classes in G, then AB is a union of conjugacy classes in G and hinsert ignore into journalissuearticles values(AB); denotes the number of distinct conjugacy classes of G contained in AB. If c and y are two complex irreducible characters of G, then cy is a character of G and again we let hinsert ignore into journalissuearticles values(cy); be the number of irreducible characters of G appearing as constituents of cy. In this paper our aim is to study the product of conjugacy classes in a finite group and obtain an upper bound for h in general. Then we study similar results related to the product of two irreducible characters.
