Résumé

Let $G$ be a finite group. Its spectrum $\omega(G)$ is the set of all element orders of $G$. The prime spectrum $\pi(G)$ is the set of all prime divisors of the order of $G$. The Gruenberg–Kegel graph (or the prime graph) $\Gamma(G)$ is the simple graph with vertex set $\pi(G)$ in which any two vertices $p$ and $q$ are adjacent if and only if $pq \in \omega(G)$. The structural Gruenberg–Kegel theorem implies that the class of finite groups with disconnected Gruenberg–Kegel graphs widely generalizes the class of finite Frobenius groups, whose role in finite group theory is absolutely exceptional. The question of coincidence of Gruenberg–Kegel graphs of a finite Frobenius group and of an almost simple group naturally arises. The answer to the question is known in the cases when the Frobenius group is solvable and when the almost simple group coincides with its socle. In this short note we answer the question in the case when the Frobenius group is nonsolvable and the socle of the almost simple group is isomorphic to $PSL_2(q)$ for some $q$.
