Abstract

Let $G$ be a finite group‎. ‎A subset $X$ of $G$ is a set of pairwise non-commuting elements‎
‎if any two distinct elements of $X$ do not commute‎. ‎In this paper‎
‎we determine the maximum size of these subsets in any finite‎
‎non-abelian metacyclic $2$-group and in any finite non-abelian $p$-group with an abelian maximal subgroup‎.
