Abstract

This document is rather a course about groups than a research paper. However, it can be of interest for many master students in mathematics which are devoted to the p-group classification theory. This paper is inspirated of the course of David Clausen from the university of Puget Sound (USA) on the classification of groups of order 16. His publication was made on GNU Licence. However, his publication contained some typo errors which make difficult the understanding of his method. Moreover, his proof, although interesting, is not the simplest. In my document, while keeping the development that he proposed, I greatly simplified his proof of classification of groups of order 16.
