In this paper, we provide a survey (both theoretical and computational) of the conditions for determining which finite p -groups are strongly flat. Let m(G) denote the maximum size of an irredundant generating set of a group G . Then, a group G is strongly flat if m(G) is strictly greater than m(H) for all proper subgroups H of G . For example, J. Whiston has shown in his dissertation that all ...

a famous theorem of schur states that for a group $g$ finiteness of $g/z(g)$‎ ‎implies the finiteness of $g'.$ the converse of schur's theorem is an interesting problem which has been considered by some‎ ‎authors‎. ‎recently‎, ‎podoski and szegedy proved the truth of the converse of schur's theorem for capable groups‎. ‎they also established an explicit bound for the index of the...

A $p$-group $G$ is called a $mathcal{CAC}$-$p$-group if $C_G(H)/H$ is ‎cyclic for every non-cyclic abelian subgroup $H$ in $G$ with $Hnleq‎ ‎Z(G)$‎. ‎In this paper‎, ‎we give a complete classification of‎ ‎finite $mathcal{CAC}$-$p$-groups‎.

Let G be a group. A subset X of G is a set of pairwise noncommuting elements if xy ̸= yx for any two distinct elements x and y in X. If |X| ≥ |Y | for any other set of pairwise non-commuting elements Y in G, then X is said to be a maximal subset of pairwise non-commuting elements. In this paper we determine the cardinality of a maximal subset of pairwise non-commuting elements in any non-abelian...
