A Note on Absolute Central Automorphisms of Finite $p$-Groups

Let $G$ be a finite group. The automorphism $sigma$ of a group $G$ is said to be an absolute central automorphism, if for all $xin G$, $x^{-1}x^{sigma}in L(G)$, where $L(G)$ be the absolute centre of $G$. In this paper, we study  some properties of absolute central automorphisms of a given finite $p$-group.

Pairwise‎ ‎non-commuting elements in finite metacyclic $2$-groups and some finite $p$-groups

Let $G$ be a finite group‎. ‎A subset $X$ of $G$ is a set of pairwise non-commuting elements‎ ‎if any two distinct elements of $X$ do not commute‎. ‎In this paper‎ ‎we determine the maximum size of these subsets in any finite‎ ‎non-abelian metacyclic $2$-group and in any finite non-abelian $p$-group with an abelian maximal subgroup‎.

On equality of absolute central and class preserving automorphisms of finite $p$-groups

Let $G$ be a finite non-abelian $p$-group and $L(G)$ denotes the absolute center of $G$. Also, let $Aut^{L}(G)$ and $Aut_c(G)$ denote the group of all absolute central and the class preserving automorphisms of $G$, respectively. In this paper, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for $G$ such that $Aut_c(G)=Aut^{L}(G)$. We also characterize all finite non-abelian $p$-groups of order $p^...

Central extensions of p-adic algebraic groups by finite p-groups

Some problems on algebraic groups over global fields like the congruence subgroup problem involve the determination of topological central extensions of the adelic group which, in turn, leads naturally to the study of topological central extensions of p-adic Lie groups by finite groups like the group of roots of unity in the p-adic field. Moreover, central extensions of semisimple p-adic Lie gr...
