Finite $p$-groups of class two with a small multiple holomorph

Group Theory 2024-03-05 v3

Abstract

We consider the quotient group T(G)T(G) of the multiple holomorph by the holomorph of a finite pp-group GG of class two for an odd prime pp. By work of the first-named author, we know that T(G)T(G) contains a cyclic subgroup of order pr1(p1)p^{r-1}(p-1), where prp^r is the exponent of the quotient of GG by its center. In this paper, we shall exhibit examples of GG (with r=1r = 1) such that T(G)T(G) has order exactly p1p-1, which is as small as possible.
