Abstract: | A finite group G is called p
i
-central of height k if every element of order p
i
of G is contained in the k
th
-term ζ
k
(G) of the ascending central series of G. If p is odd, such a group has to be p-nilpotent (Thm. A). Finite p-central p-groups of height p − 2 can be seen as the dual analogue of finite potent p-groups, i.e., for such a finite p-group P the group P/Ω1(P) is also p-central of height p − 2 (Thm. B). In such a group P, the index of P
p
is less than or equal to the order of the subgroup Ω1(P) (Thm. C). If the Sylow p-subgroup P of a finite group G is p-central of height p − 1, p odd, and N
G
(P) is p-nilpotent, then G is also p-nilpotent (Thm. D). Moreover, if G is a p-soluble finite group, p odd, and P ∈ Syl
p
(G) is p-central of height p − 2, then N
G
(P) controls p-fusion in G (Thm. E). It is well-known that the last two properties hold for Swan groups (see 11]). |
