Mar 31, 2011 at 21:23 comment added Olivier Bégassat and said group is abelian, I'm sure it can be much improved.
Mar 31, 2011 at 20:51 comment added Olivier Bégassat I mean that for large $n,~n_1\cdot\dots\cdot n_m$ can be chosen close to $\frac{n^m}{m^m}$.
Mar 31, 2011 at 20:49 comment added Olivier Bégassat As pointed out before, $|G|\leq \binom{n}{m}$ which is approximatively $\frac{n^m}{m!}$ for large $n=|X|$ and fixed $m=|Y|$. On the other hand, if you have $n_1+\dots +n_m=n$ and $n_i\geq 1$ for all $i=1\dots m$, then you can find a group with $|G|=n_1\times\cdots\times n_m$ with desired property. For large $n$ that's close to $\frac{n^m}{m^m}$. So, at least asymptotically you have, for fixed $m$, calling $B(m,n)$ the cardinal of the biggest group satisfying your condition, $\frac{n^m}{m^m}\lesssim B(m,n)\lesssim\frac{n^m}{m!}$
Mar 31, 2011 at 19:18 comment added Klim Efremenko No I did not claim that there is only one maximal group. Just one can understand that maximal group in sense that there is no group including it which has property P
