Riguardo questo articolo

The classification of finite simple groups is a landmark result of modern mathematics. This work presents critical aspects of the classification. It begins with the proof of a major theorem from the classification grid, namely Theorem $\mathcal{C}_7$. It is suitable for graduate students and researchers interested in group theory.

Riassunto

The fifth volume of the study proves two, and part of the third, of the planned five stages for the generic cast of the classification of finite simple groups. The main result is that either G has a p -uniqueness subgroup for some prime p , or that G has a neighborhood of semisimple subgroups that demonstrate certain properties in common with those in target simple groups G* . All this is preparation for the final stages, which are expected to deduce that G is about the same as G* for some known simple G* . Stay tuned. Perhaps an index will be deemed meet when the final answers are revealed. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
