Order 27 = 3³

0 / 5 paper-excluded 0 / 5 Lean-excluded odd candidate

Why a candidate

Order 27 = 3³ is a candidate because it divides the following Theorem 6 maxima: 135.

From the paper (Macaj–Siran 2010)

Lemma 17 (3-group classification): a 3-group of order 27 has Fix(X) the Petersen graph (Petersen branch's bound |X| ∣ 27 is met with equality; the singleton branch |X| ∣ 81 also allows 27). Theorem 4 caps 3-group Aut(Γ)-subgroups at order 27. The paper does not single out any of the 5 isomorphism types as excluded. All 5 groups paper-allowed.
