Questions tagged [frattini-subgroup]

Frattini subgroup of a group $G$ is the intersection of all maximal proper subgroups of $G$. It can be also equivalently defined as the set of all nongenerators of $G$ ($x \in G$ is a nongenerator of $G$ iff $\forall S \subset G ((\langle S \cup {x} \rangle = G) \rightarrow (\langle S \rangle = G))$). Frattini subgroup is always a characteristic subgroup. To be used with the tag [group-theory].

Generators in a $2$-generated $p$-group

I suppose to have a 2-generated $p$-group $G$. I know that if $\langle a,b\rangle =G$, then $\langle aΦ(G), bΦ(G)\rangle = G/Φ(G)$, where $Φ(G)$ is the Frattini subgroup of $G$. Is it also true that if I have $\langle cΦ(G),dΦ(G)\rangle = G/Φ(G)$,…
