Abstract

AbstractWe solve the following problem which was posed by Barnes in 1962. For which abelian groups G and H of the same prime power order is it possible to embed the subgroup lattice of G in that of H? It follows from Barnes' results and a theorem of Herrmann and Huhn that if there exists such an embedding and G contains three independent elements of order p2, then G and H are isomorphic. This reduces the problem to the case that G is the direct product of cyclic p-groups only two of which have order larger than p. We determine all groups H for which the desired embedding exists.
