چکیده

Many common finite p-groups admit automorphisms of order coprime to p, and when p is odd, it is reasonably difficult to find finite p-groups with automorphism group a p-group. Yet the goal of this paper is to prove that almost all finite p-groups do have automorphism group a p-group when p is odd. The asymptotic sense in which the theorem holds involves bounding the Frattini length of the p-groups and letting the number of generators go to infinity. The proof of the theorem draws on a detailed analysis of the Frattini series of a free group and the combinatorics linking finite p-groups and representations of GL(n, Fp). The case of p = 2 remains open.

Ju l 2 00 4 ALL p - LOCAL FINITE GROUPS OF RANK TWO FOR ODD PRIME

In this paper we give a classification of the rank two p-local finite groups for odd p. This study requires the analisis of the possible saturated fusion systems in terms of the outer automorphism group ant the proper F -radical subgroups. Also, for each case in the classification, either we give a finite group with the corresponding fusion system or we check that it corresponds to an exotic p-...

On the nilpotency class of the automorphism group of some finite p-groups

Let $G$ be a $p$-group of order $p^n$ and $Phi$=$Phi(G)$ be the Frattini subgroup of $G$. It is shown that the nilpotency class of $Autf(G)$, the group of all automorphisms of $G$ centralizing $G/ Fr(G)$, takes the maximum value $n-2$ if and only if $G$ is of maximal class. We also determine the nilpotency class of $Autf(G)$ when $G$ is a finite abelian $p$-group.

Principal 2-Blocks and Sylow 2-Subgroups

Let G be a finite group with Sylow 2-subgroup P 6 G. Navarro–Tiep–Vallejo have conjectured that the principal 2-block of NG(P) contains exactly one irreducible Brauer character if and only if all odd-degree ordinary irreducible characters in the principal 2-block of G are fixed by a certain Galois automorphism σ. By recent work of Navarro–Vallejo it suffices to show this conjecture holds for al...

THE AUTOMORPHISM GROUP OF A FINITE MINIMAL NON-ABELIAN p-GROUP

Determining the order and the structure of the automorphism group of a finite p-group is an important problem in group theory. There have been a number of studies of the automorphism group of p-groups. Most of them deal with the order of Aut(G), the automorphism group of G, see for example [1] and [6]. Moreover various attempts have been made to find a structure for the automorphism group of a ...
