Finite nilpotent groups, (p)-groups (20D15)

Abstract: A finite $p$-group $G$ is said to be $d$-maximal if $d(H)<d(G)$ for every subgroup $H<G$, where $d(G)$ denotes the minimal number of generators of $G$. A similar definition can be formulated when $G$ is acted on by some group $A$. We generalize results of B. Kahn and T. Laffey to the latter case, and give them in particular alternative short proofs. We answer moreover a question of Y. Berkovich about the minimal non-metacyclic $p$-groups.
