Abstract
Let K be a field of positive characteristic p and KG the group algebra of a group G. It is known that, if KG is Lie nilpotent, then its upper ( and lower) Lie nilpotency index is at most vertical bar G'vertical bar + 1, where vertical bar G'vertical bar is the order of the commutator subgroup. The authors previously determined those groups G for which this index is maximal and here they determine the groups G for which it is 'almost maximal', that is, it takes the next highest possible value, namely vertical bar G'vertical bar - p + 2.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
