Abstract:

In this note we classify finite p-groups in which any two noncommutative elements generate a  subgroup of order p3. As a consequence, we solve the research problem No. 237 in [1]: Study the p-groups G such that |( x, y) | ≤ p3 for all x, y ∈ G.

Key words: p-groups, Metacyclic groups, Minimal non-abelian groups, 2-Engle condition
