Flores and Richard M. Foote Author's e-mail address: rflores@est-econ.uc3m.es, foote@math.uvm.edu Abstract: In this paper we give a complete classification of the finite groups that contain a strongly closed $p$-subgroup, generalizing previous work of the second author to the case of an odd prime. We use this result to also obtain a description of the BZ/p-cellularization (in the sense of Dror-Farjoun) of all the classifying spaces of finite groups. \end{document}
