ON THE EXISTENCE OF NONINNER AUTOMORPHISMS OF ORDER TWO IN FINITE 2-GROUPS

Abstract In this paper we prove that every nonabelian finite 2-group with a cyclic commutator subgroup has a noninner automorphism of order two fixing either Φ( G ) or Z ( G ) elementwise. This, together with a result of Peter Schmid on regular p -groups, extends our result to …
