Pablo Spiga (UWA)

will speak on

On a problem of Janko, a conjecture of Isbell and a £50 prize of Cameron.

at 12 noon in MLR2 on Tuesday 23 February.

Abstract: Recently Janko asked whether it is possible to classify the 2-generated p-groups whose maximal subgroups are 2-generated. In this talk we present some data and some partial results in order to show that a possible classification seems feasible for p>4. Also, we show how the groups arising in this classification are useful for obtaining a partial result towards a conjecture of Isbell (and hopefully a £50 prize of Cameron). All required definitions are given during the talk.

All welcome.
