    Abstract

    This paper investigates finite p-groups, p ≥ 5, in which every cyclic subgroup has defect at most two. This class of groups is often denoted by U2,1. The main result is a theorem which characterises these groups by identifying a family of groups in U2,1, and showing that any finite p-group in U2,1, with p ≥ 5, must be a homomorphic image of one of these groups.
