Thompson's conjecture for alternating group

Let $G$ be a finite group, and let $N(G)$ be the set of sizes of its conjugacy classes. We show that if a finite group $G$ has trivial center and $N(G)$ equals to $N(Alt_n)$ or $N(Sym_n)$ for $n\geq 23$, then $G$ has a composition factor isomorphic to an alternating group $Alt_k$ such that $k\leq n$ and the half-interval $(k, n]$ contains no primes. As a corollary, we prove the Thompson's conjecture for simple alternating groups.
