On the product decomposition conjecture for finite simple groups
We prove that if G is a finite simple group of Lie type and S a subset of G of size at least two then G is a product of at most c log |G|/ log |S| conjugates of S, where c depends only on the Lie rank of G. This confirms a conjecture of Liebeck, Nikolov and Shalev in the case of families of simple groups of bounded rank. We also obtain various related results about products of conjugates of a s...
متن کاملOn the Navarro-willems Conjecture for Blocks of Finite Groups
Let G be a finite group. For a prime p and a p-block B of G, we denote by Irr(B) the set of complex irreducible characters of G that belong to B. It was conjectured by Navarro and Willems [NW] that if for blocks Bp and Bq of G at different primes p, q we have an equality Irr(Bp) = Irr(Bq) then |Irr(Bp)| = 1. But then the first author of the present article found that the extension group 6.A7 of...
متن کاملFinite Permutation Groups and Finite Simple Groups
In the past two decades, there have been far-reaching developments in the problem of determining all finite non-abelian simple groups—so much so, that many people now believe that the solution to the problem is imminent. And now, as I correct these proofs in October 1980, the solution has just been announced. Of course, the solution will have a considerable effect on many related areas, both wi...
متن کاملOn the Ranks of Finite Simple Groups
Let G be a finite group and let X be a conjugacy class of G. The rank of X in G, denoted by rank(G:X) is defined to be the minimal number of elements of X generating G. In this paper we review the basic results on generation of finite simple groups and we survey the recent developments on computing the ranks of finite simple groups.
متن کاملSimple groups of finite
The Algebraicity Conjecture treats model-theoretic foundations of algebraic group theory. It states that any simple group of finite Morley rank is an algebraic group over an algebraically closed field. In the mid-1990s a view was consolidated that this project falls into four cases of different flavour: even type, mixed type, odd type, and degenerate type. This book contains a proof of the conj...
