Abstract

The Chermak–Delgado measure of a subgroup H of a finite group G is defined as mG(H) = |H||CG(H)|. The subgroups with maximal Chermak–Delgado measure form a poset and corresponding lattice, known as the CD-lattice of G. We describe the symmetric nature of CD-lattices in general, and use information about centrally large subgroups to determine the CD-lattices of split metacyclic p-groups in particular. We also describe a rank-symmetric sublattice of the CD-lattice of split metacyclic p-groups.
