p-GROUPS WITH MAXIMAL ELEMENTARY ABELIAN SUBGROUPS OF RANK 2
نویسندگان
چکیده
Let p be an odd prime number and G a finite p-group. We prove that if the rank of G is greater than p, then G has no maximal elementary abelian subgroup of rank 2. It follows that if G has rank greater than p, then the poset E(G) of elementary abelian subgroups of G of rank at least 2 is connected and the torsion-free rank of the group of endotrivial kG-modules is one, for any field k of characteristic p. We also verify the class-breadth conjecture for the p-groups G whose poset E(G) has more than one component.

Triple factorization of non-abelian groups by two maximal subgroups
The triple factorization of a group $G$ has been studied recently showing that $G=ABA$ for some proper subgroups $A$ and $B$ of $G$, the definition of rank-two geometry and rank-two coset geometry which is closely related to the triple factorization was defined and calculated for abelian groups. In this paper we study two infinite classes of non-abelian finite groups $D_{2n}$ and $PSL(2,2^{n})$...
متن کاملFuzzy Subgroups of Rank Two Abelian p-Group
In this paper we enumerate fuzzy subgroups, up to a natural equivalence, of some finite abelian p-groups of rank two where p is any prime number. After obtaining the number of maximal chains of subgroups, we count fuzzy subgroups using inductive arguments. The number of such fuzzy subgroups forms a polynomial in p with pleasing combinatorial coefficients. By exploiting the order, we label the s...
متن کاملCOUNTING DISTINCT FUZZY SUBGROUPS OF SOME RANK-3 ABELIAN GROUPS
In this paper we classify fuzzy subgroups of a rank-3 abelian group $G = mathbb{Z}_{p^n} + mathbb{Z}_p + mathbb{Z}_p$ for any fixed prime $p$ and any positive integer $n$, using a natural equivalence relation given in cite{mur:01}. We present and prove explicit polynomial formulae for the number of (i) subgroups, (ii) maximal chains of subgroups, (iii) distinct fuzzy subgroups, (iv) non-isomorp...
متن کاملRanks of the Sylow 2-Subgroups of the Classical Groups
Let S be a 2-group. The rank (normal rank) of S is the maximal dimension of an elementary abelian subgroup (a normal elementary abelian subgroup) of S over Z2. The purpose of this article is to determine the rank and normal rank of S, where S is a Sylow 2-subgroup of the classical groups of odd characteristic.
متن کاملThe Poset of Elementary Abelian Subgroups Of
If p is a prime number, the poset of all nontrivial elementary abelian p -subgroups of a finite group plays an important role in both group theory and representation theory. It was studied by Quillen [9], who proved among many other things that it is homotopy equivalent to the poset of all nontrivial p -subgroups. In the case of a p -group P , one might believe that this poset has no interest s...
