Abstract:  We determine the finite groups whose poset of conjugacy classes of subgroups has breaking points. This leads to a new characterization of the generalized quaternion 2-groups. A generalization of this property is also studied.
Keywords:  breaking point; poset of conjugacy classes of subgroups; interval; generalized quaternion 2-group
