A. J. Weir [1] has found the maximal normal abelian subgroups of the Sylow p-subgroups of the general linear group over a finite field of characteristic p, and a theorem of J. L. Alperin [2] shows that the Sylow p-subgroups of the general linear group over finite fields of characteristic different from p have a unique largest normal abelian subgroup and that no other abelian subgroup has order as great.
