Some functions for various standard subgroups or series which are only available for p-groups.
Given a p-group G, return the characteristic subgroup of G generated by the elements x^(p^i), x in G, where i is a positive integer.
Given a p-group G, return the Jennings series for G. The series is returned as a sequence of subgroups. The Jennings series J_1 triangleright J_2 triangleright ... triangleright J_i ... of a p-group G is defined inductively as follows:
- J_1 = G,
- J_(i + 1) = <(J_i, G), J_k^p>, with k = Ceiling((i + 1)/p), i > 0.
Given a p-group G, return the characteristic subgroup of G generated by the elements of order dividing p^i, where i is a positive integer.[Next][Prev] [Right] [Left] [Up] [Index] [Root]
