Abstract

We continue the analysis of the Modular Isomorphism Problem for 22-generated pp-groups with cyclic derived subgroup, p>2p>2, started in [D. Garc\'ia-Lucas, \'A. del R\'io, and M. Stanojkovski. On group invariants determined by modular group algebras: even versus odd characteristic. Algebr. Represent. Theory. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10468-022-10182-x, 2022]. We show that if GG belongs to this class of groups, then the isomorphism type of the quotients G/(G)p3G/(G')^{p^3} and G/γ3(G)pG/\gamma_3(G)^p are determined by its modular group algebra. In fact, we obtain a more general but technical result, expressed in terms of the classification \cite{OsnelDiegoAngel}. We also show that for groups in this class of order at most p11p^{11}, the Modular Isomorphism Problem has positive answer. Finally, we describe some families of groups of order p12p^{12} whose group algebras over the field with pp elements cannot be distinguished with the techniques available to us.
