Let p be a prime and P be a p-subgroup of a finite group G. Suppose that g ∈ G and that P ∩ Pg has index p in P. In [4], we assumed that g normalizes no non-identity normal subgroup of P. We obtained some bounds on the order of P and some applications to the case in which p = 2 and P is a Sylow 2-subgroup of 〈P, Pg〉. In this paper, we examine this situation further by considering the isomorphism ϕ of P ∩ Pg-l onto P ∩ Pg given by ϕ(x) = xg. We actually consider arbitrary isomorphisms ϕ between two subgroups of index p in P. However, an easy argument (Lemma 2.3) shows that every such ϕ can be obtained as above for some G and some g. We obtain some results concerning the nilpotence class rather than the order of P.
