Indeed, the socle of a finite p-group is the subgroup of the center consisting of the central elements of order p. If G is a p-group, then so is G/Z, and so it too has a non-trivial cen... | Generalizing the earlier comments about the socle, a finite p-group with order pn contains normal subgroups of order pi with 0 ≤ i ≤ n, and any normal subgroup of order pi is contained in the ith center Zi. | If a normal subgroup is not contained in Zi, then its intersection with Zi+1 has size at least pi+1. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P-group | P-group |
