Abstract Let $$L_{\left( {k^n } \right)}$$ (p) denote the subgroup lattice of the abelianp-group $$(Z/p^k Z) \times \cdots \times (Z/p^k Z)(ntimes).$$ . It is conjectured that the lattice has the Sperner property. Whenk=1, the conjecture is true since it is isomorphic to the subspace lattice, and Stanley has confirmed it fork=2. In this paper, we prove that the conjecture is generally true.
