As a result, responsibility of finding errors in the classification problem was up to the entire community of researchers rather than just peer-reviewers alone. That Aschbacher's proofs were hard to read was not due to a lack of ability, but rather to the astounding complexity of the ideas he was able to produce. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

Elias M. Manin Elliott H. Lieb Richard P. It can serve as a text for a course on finite groups for students already exposed to a first course in algebra. Sporadic groups by Michael Aschbacher Book 18 editions published between and in English and Undetermined and held by WorldCat member libraries worldwide The Monster is constructed as the automorphism group of the Griess algebra using some of the best features of the approaches of Griess, Conway, and Tits, plus a few new wrinkles.
The existence treatment finishes with an application of the theory of large extraspecial subgroups to produce the 20 sporadics involved in the Monster. The finite simple groups and their classification by Michael Aschbacher Book 13 editions published in in English and held by WorldCat member libraries worldwide.
They establish the existence, uniqueness, and structural results for the Fischer groups, necessary for the classification of the finite simple groups. Parts II and III are a step in the author's program begun in Sporadic Groups to supply a strong foundation for the theory of sporadic groups. The classification of quasithin groups by Michael Aschbacher Book 23 editions published between and in English and held by WorldCat member libraries worldwide This is the second volume of a two-volume set, which take up where Geoff Mason left off in the x on the issue of quasithin groups of even characteristics.
This lively and comprehensive proof includes the structure of QTKE-groups and the main case division, treatments of the generic case and modules which are not FF-modules, and certain pairs in the FSU. While the two volumes address one issue of mathematics, they also serve as models of presentation for analyses Annotation : Book News, Inc. The classification of finite simple groups : groups of characteristic 2 type by Michael Aschbacher Book 11 editions published in in English and held by WorldCat member libraries worldwide The book provides an outline and modern overview of the classification of the finite simple groups.
It primarily covers the ""even case"", where the main groups arising are Lie-type matrix groups over a field of characteristic 2.
The book thus completes a project begun by Daniel Gorenstein's book, which outlined the classification of groups of ""noncharacteristic 2 type"". However, this book provides much more. Chapter 0 is a modern overview of the logical structure of the entire classification. Chapter 1 is a concise but complete outline of the ""odd case"" with updated references, whi. Overgroups of Sylow subgroups in sporadic groups by Michael Aschbacher Book 14 editions published in in English and held by WorldCat member libraries worldwide The maximal overgroups of noncyclic Sylow subgroups of the sporadic finite simple groups are determined.
Moreover a geometric structure is associated to this collection of overgroups, which is useful in the study of sporadic groups. The generalized fitting subsystem of a fusion system by Michael Aschbacher Book 16 editions published between and in English and held by WorldCat member libraries worldwide "The notion of a fusion system was first defined and explored by Puig, in the context of modular representation theory. Later, Broto, Levi, and Oliver extended the theory and used it as a tool in homotopy theory. We seek to build a local theory of fusion systems, analogous to the local theory of finite groups, involving normal subsystems and factor systems.
Among other results, we define the notion of a simple system, the generalized Fitting subsystem of a fusion system, and prove the L-balance theorem of Gorenstein and Walter for fusion systems. Geometries and groups : proceedings of the Workshop Geometries and Groups, Finite and Algebraic, Noordwijkerhout, Holland, March by Michael Aschbacher Book 12 editions published between and in English and held by WorldCat member libraries worldwide The workshop was set up in order to stimulate the interaction between finite and algebraic geometries and groups.
Five areas of concentrated research were chosen on which attention would be focused, namely: diagram geometries and chamber systems with transitive automorphism groups, geometries viewed as incidence systems, properties of finite groups of Lie type, geometries related to finite simple groups, and algebraic groups. The list of talks cf. MathOverflow is a question and answer site for professional mathematicians. It only takes a minute to sign up. And if the answer to either question is yes, is there a proof without classification?
From that point on, researchers no longer read papers as independent documents, but rather ones that required the context of its author. Part of the answer lies in the fact that there are advantages to be gained by working with fusion systems rather than groups. Liebeck Downing College, Cambridge Search for more papers by this author. Five areas of concentrated research were chosen on which attention would be focused, namely: diagram geometries and chamber systems with transitive automorphism groups, geometries viewed as incidence systems, properties of finite groups of Lie type, geometries related to finite simple groups, and algebraic groups. On fusion systems of component type by Michael Aschbacher Book 9 editions published in in English and Undetermined and held by WorldCat member libraries worldwide This memoir begins a program to classify a large subclass of the class of simple saturated 2-fusion systems of component type. Among other results, we define the notion of a simple system, the generalized Fitting subsystem of a fusion system, and prove the L-balance theorem of Gorenstein and Walter for fusion systems.
Unfortunately I made a mistake in my original answer. The geometric-type maximal subgroups of the classical groups are listed in the book by Kleidman and Liebeck. Some of these are not maximal in small dimensions. I know very little about the maximal subgroups of the exceptional groups of Lie type, but I looked at Table 5.
