Automorphisms of the lattice of subgroups of \(Z_{p\quad m}\times Z_{p\quad n}\) (Q1100555)

The theorems of this note determine P(E), the group of all lattice automorphisms of the lattice of subgroups of a doubly generated primary abelian group E, in terms of wreath products of symmetric groups and wreath powers. In particular, \[ 1.\quad P(Z_{p^ n}\times Z_{p^ n})=(S_ p wr... wr S_ p) wr S_{p+1}=(S_ p)^{n+1} wr S_{p+1}. \] \[ 2.\quad P(Z_{p^ m}\times Z_{p^ n})=S^ n_ p\times (S_ p^{n-1} wr S_{p-1})\times...\times (S_ p^{n-1} wr S_{p- 1})\times S^ n_ p \] where \(m>n\) and there are \(m-n+1\) factors in the direct product. These are permutational wreath products, e.g. \(P(Z_{p^ 2}\times Z_{p^ 2})=S_ p wr S_{p+1}\) has order \((p!)^{p+1}(p+1)!\).
