The Classification of the Finite Simple Groups (6) (Mathematical Surveys & Monographs, 40, Band 6) - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

This volume contains the proofs of Theorems C2 and C3, which constitute the classification of finite simple groups G of special odd type. The special odd condition is introduced as representing the measure of smallness for simple groups which are not of even type. Incorporated into the proof of Theorem C2 are the classifications by Gorenstein-Walther and Alperin-Brauer- Gorenstein, among others, noted as major accomplishments of the 1960s. This treatment employs the Bender Method rather than Signalizer Functor Method. The authors (whose academic affiliations are not given) include background and expository references, and a glossary-cum-index of symbols.
