Abstract

In this paper, we find necessary and sufficient conditions for the regularity of the Sylow p-subgroup P of the Chevalley group of types F4 or E6 defined over the ring of integers modulo pm when p is a prime different from 37, 41, 43, 47. For the listed values of p, the group P is regular if the exponent m does not exceed 3; for m greater than 3, the answer remains unknown.
