Invariance of Schur multiplier, Bogomolov multiplier and the minimal number of generators under a variant of isoclinism

We introduce the $q$-Bogomolov multiplier as a generalization of the Bogomolov multiplier, and we prove that it is invariant under $q$-isoclinism. We prove that the $q$-Schur Multiplier is invariant under $q$- exterior isoclinism, and as an easy consequence we prove that the Schur multiplier is invariant under exterior isoclinism. We also prove that if $G$, $H$ are $p$-groups and $G/Z^{\wedge}(G)\cong H/Z^{\wedge}(H)$, then the cardinality of the minimal number of generators of $G$ and $H$ are the same. Moreover we prove some structural results about $q$-nonabelian tensor square of groups.
