On groups with $operatorname{Inn}(G) cong D_8$ or $A_4$. [closed]
Let $G/Z(G) cong D_8$, where $D_8$ is the dihedral group of order $8$ and $Z(G)$ is the center of $G$. What are the possibilities for the group $G$ and does there always exist a non-inner automorphism group $G$?
Same question with $A_4$ in place of $D_8$.
Thanks.

There are infinitely many such groups. For example, $G / Z(G) cong D_8$ when $G cong A times D_{16}$ with $A$ any abelian group.
Similarly, $G / Z(G) cong A_4$ when $G cong B times operatorname{SL}_2(3)$ with $B$ any abelian group.
The "right question" to ask here is for those groups $G$ such that $G / Z(G) cong D_8$ (or $A_4$), where $G$ has no abelian direct factors. I do not know the answer to that question. You should have a look at capable groups.

For the the dihedral group of order 8 with presentation $<x, y| x^2=y^2=(xy)^4=1>$
consider the group $G=<x, y| x^2=y^2=(xy)^4>$. $G$ is of order 48 with center of order 6, generated by $x^2$.
For the group A_4 with presentation $<x, y| x^2=y^3=(xy)^3=1>$ consider the group
$G=<x, y| x^2=y^3=(xy)^3>$ of order 72 with center of order 6, generated by $x^2$.
