Further Rigid Triples of Classes in $G_{2}$

Group Theory 2018-07-30 v2

Abstract

We establish the existence of two rigid triples of conjugacy classes in the algebraic group G2G_{2} in characteristic 55, complementing results of the second author with Liebeck and Marion. As a corollary, the finite groups G2(5n)G_{2}(5^n) are not (2,4,5)(2,4,5)-generated, confirming a conjecture of Marion in this case.
