Hello Mr M.M(Sir!)
I want to know that It is possible to put an adverb between helping verb followed by by "not" and then followed by main verb.
i.e
1.He has not given me a pen. 2.He has also not given me a pencil.
Can "has not" be seprated by an adverb like "has some adverb not"?
Please explain it a bit.
Thanks.

That works in a few cases, hanuman, as e.g. the 3rd example, Mr. M. mentioned:
"...he has also not brought his book."
"Also" by the way is usually negated by "not...either" or "neither"
Your sentence "He has also not given me a pencil" would therefore (usually!) be
"He has not given me a pencil, either." or "Neither has he given me a pencil.".
