If all subgroups of index $p^t$ of $G$ are abelian and at least one subgroup of index $p^{t-1}$ of $G$ is not abelian, then $G$ is called an $\\mathcal{A}_t$-group. In this paper, some information about $\\mathcal{A}_t$-groups are obtained and $\\mathcal{A}_3$-groups are completely classified. This solves an {\\it old problem} proposed by Berkovich and Janko in their book. Abundant information about $\\mathcal{A}_3$-groups are given.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2014-10-23T02:10:55.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "20D15" ], "keywords": [ "old problem", "abundant information" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2014arXiv1410.6226Z" } } }
