Abstract: Let $G$ be any group. The quotient group $T(G)$ of the multiple holomorph by the holomorph of $G$ has been investigated for various families of groups $G$. In this paper, we shall take $G$ to be a finite $p$-group of class two for any odd prime $p$, in which case $T(G)$ may be studied using certain bilinear forms. For any $ngeq4$, we exhibit examples of $G$ of order $p^{n+nchoose2}$ such that $T(G)$ contains a subgroup isomorphic to �egin{equation*} operatorname{GL}_n(mathbb{F}_p) imes operatorname{GL}_{�inom{n}{2}-n}(mathbb{F}_p).end{equation*} For finite $p$-groups $G$, the prime factors of the order of $T(G)$ which are known so far all came from $p(p-1)$. Our examples show that the order of $T(G)$ can have other prime factors as well. In fact, we can embed any finite group into $T(G)$ for a suitable choice of $G$.
