The class three groups of order $p^9$ with exponent $p$

Abstract

We give a complete list of the class two groups with exponent pp and order dividing p8p^8. For each group in the list we compute the number of immediate descendants of order p9p^9 with exponent pp. In each case the number of descendants is PORC, and so the total number of class three groups of order p9p^9 with exponent pp is PORC. Nevertheless, there are groups of order p8p^8 with exponent pp which have a non-PORC number of class three descendants of order p9p^9 with exponent pp.
