Adjunction of roots to unitriangular groups over prime finite fields

Abstract: In this paper we study embeddings of unitriangular groups UT

_{n} (m a t h b b F_{p})

arising under adjunction of roots. We construct embeddings of UT

_{n} (m a t h b b F_{p})

in UT

_{m} (m a t h b b F_{p})

, for

n g e q 2

,

m = (n - 1) p^{s} + 1

,

s i n m a t h b b Z^{+}

, such that any element of UT

_{n} (m a t h b b F_{p})

has a

p^{s}

-th root in UT

_{m} (m a t h b b F_{p})

. Also we construct an embedding of the wreath product UT

_{n} (m a t h b b F_{p}) w r C_{p^{s}}

in UT

_{m} (m a t h b b F_{p})

, where

C_{p^{s}}

is the cyclic group of order

p^{s}

.
