A class of finite $p$-groups and the normalized unit groups of group algebras

Let $p$ be a prime and $\mathbb{F}_p$ be a finite field of $p$ elements. Let $\mathbb{F}_pG$ denote the group algebra of the finite $p$-group $G$ over the field $\mathbb{F}_p$ and $V(\mathbb{F}_pG)$ denote the group of normalized units in $\mathbb{F}_pG$. Suppose that $G$ is a finite $p$-group given by a central extension of the form $$1\longrightarrow \mathbb{Z}_{p^n}\times \mathbb{Z}_{p^m} \longrightarrow G \longrightarrow \mathbb{Z}_p\times \cdots\times \mathbb{Z}_p \longrightarrow 1$$ and $G'\cong \mathbb{Z}_p$, $n, m\geq 1$ and $p$ is odd. In this paper, the structure of $G$ is determined. And the relations of $V(\mathbb{F}_pG)^{p^l}$ and $G^{p^l}$, $Ω_l(V(\mathbb{F}_pG))$ and $Ω_l(G)$ are given. Furthermore, there is a direct proof for $V(\mathbb{F}_pG)^p\bigcap G=G^p$.
