We proved that finite p-groups in the title coincide with finite p-groups all of whose non-abelian subgroups are generated by two elements. Based on the result, finite p-groups all of whose subgroups of class 2 are minimal non-abelian (of the same order) are classified, respectively. Thus two questions posed by Berkovich are solved.

We show that free products of finitely generated and residually p-finite nilpotent groups, amalgamating p-closed central subgroups are residually p-finite. As a consequence, we are able to show that generalized free products of residually p-finite abelian groups are residually p-finite if the amalgamated subgroup is closed in the pro-p topology on each of the factors.

Let p be a prime. A group G is said to be residually p-finite if for each non-trivial element x of G, there exists a normal subgroup N of index a power of p in G such that x is not in N. In this note we shall prove that certain HNN extensions of free abelian groups of finite rank are residually p-finite. In addition some of these HNN extensions are subgroup separable. Characterisations for certain one-relator groups and similar groups including the Baumslag-Solitar groups to be residually p-finite are proved.

Let E be a free product of a finite number of cyclic groups, and S a normal subgroup of E such that $$E/S{\sim_=}G$$ is finite. For a prime p, $\hat{S}=S/S^{\prime}S^p$ may be regarded as an $F_pG$-module via conjugation in E. The aim of this article is to prove that $\hat{S}$ is decomposable into two indecomposable modules for finite elementary abelian p-groups G.

We describe the structure of finite p-groups in which all normal closures of non-normal subgroups have two orders for p > 2.

In this paper we classify finite groups whose nonnormal subgroups are of order p or pq, where p, q are primes. As a by-product, we also classify the finite groups in which all nonnormal subgroups are cyclic.

Assume G is a finite p-group and i is a fixed positive integer. In this paper, finite p-groups G with ${\mid}N_G(H):H{\mid}=p^i$ for all nonnormal subgroups H are classified up to isomorphism. As a corollary, this answer Problem 116(i) proposed by Y. Berkovich in his book "Groups of Prime Power Order Vol. I" in 2008.

In this paper we prove that the alternating groups A_n, for n = p, p+1, p+2 and symmetric groups $S_n$, for n = p, p+1, where p$\ge$3 is a prime number, can be uniquely determined by their order components. As one of the important consequence of this characterization we show that the simple groups An, where n = p, p+1, P+2 and p$\ge$3 is prime, satisfy in Thompson's conjecture and Shi's conjecture.
