We define minimal fusion systems in a way that every non-solvable fusion system has a section which is minimal. Minimal fusion systems can also be seen as analogs of Thompson's N-groups. In this paper, we consider a minimal fusion system…

In this paper we give a classification of the rank two p-local finite groups for odd p. This study requires the analisis of the possible saturated fusion systems in terms of the outer automorphism group ant the proper F-radical subgroups.…

For a prime $p$, we describe a protocol for handling a specific type of fusion system on a $p$-group by computer. These fusion systems contain all saturated fusion systems. This framework allows us to computationally determine whether or…

Let $p$ be an odd prime, and let $S$ be a $p$-group with a unique elementary abelian subgroup $A$ of index $p$. We classify the simple fusion systems over all such groups $S$ in which $A$ is essential. The resulting list, which depends on…

An $\mathcal{F}$-essential subgroup is called a pearl if it is either elementary abelian of order $p^2$ or non-abelian of order $p^3$. In this paper we start the investigation of fusion systems containing pearls: we determine a bound for…

We consider saturated fusion systems $\mathcal F$ on a Sylow $2$-subgroup of $\Omega^+_8(2)$ with $O_2(\mathcal F) = 1$. Examples for this are the $2$-fusion systems of $\Omega^+_8(2)$, $\Omega^+_8(2):3$, $P\Omega^+_8(3)$ and…

We study saturated fusion systems on $p$-groups having sectional rank $3$ for all odd primes $p$. For $p\geq 5$, we obtain a complete classification of the ones that do not have any non-trivial normal $p$-subgroups.

For $S$ a Sylow $p$-subgroup of the group $\mathrm{G}_2(p)$ for $p$ odd, up to isomorphism of fusion systems, we determine all saturated fusion systems $\mathcal{F}$ on $S$ with $O_p(\mathcal{F})=1$. For $p \ne 7$, all such fusion systems…

In this article we study several classes of `small' 2-groups: we complete the classification, started in [Stancu, 2006], of all saturated fusion systems on metacyclic p-groups for all primes p. We consider Suzuki 2-groups, and classify all…

We complete the determination of saturated fusion systems on maximal class 3-groups of rank two.

Aschbacher's program for the classification of simple fusion systems of "odd" type at the prime 2 has two main stages: the classification of 2-fusion systems of subintrinsic component type and the classification of 2-fusion systems of…

Let $p$ be an odd prime and $S$ a nonabelian finite $p$-group. In [9, 10], they proposed the following conjecture: if $\mathcal{F}$ be a transitive fusion system over a finite $p$-group $S$, then $S$ is either extraspecial of order $p^{3}$…

Let G be group; a finite p-subgroup S of G is a Sylow p-subgroup if every finite p-subgroup of G is conjugate to a subgroup of S. In this paper, we examine the relations between the fusion system over S which is given by conjugation in G…

Let $\mathcal F$ be a saturated fusion system on a finite $p$-group $S$, and let $P$ be a strongly $\mathcal F$-closed subgroup of $S$. We define the concept ``$\mathcal F$-essential subgroups with respect to $P$" which are some proper…

For an arbitrary countable group G = <A|R> given by its generators A and defining relations R we discuss a specific method for embedding of G into a certain 2-generator group T. Our embedding explicitly lists the images of generators from A…

In this paper, we study fusion categories which contain a proper fusion subcategory with maximal rank. They can be viewed as generalizations of near-group fusion categories. We first prove that they admit spherical structure. We then…

We determine all reduced saturated fusion systems supported on a finite $p$-group of nilpotency class two. As a consequence, we obtain a new proof of Gilman & Gorenstein's classification of finite simple groups with class two Sylow…

We consider an amalgam of groups constructed from fusion systems for different odd primes p and q. This amalgam contains a self-normalizing cyclic subgroup of order pq and isolated elements of order p and q.

Let $G=\mathop{A\ast B}\limits_C$ be an amalgamated product of finite rank free groups $A$, $B$ and $C$. We introduce atomic measures and corresponding asymptotic densities on a set of normal forms of elements in $G$. We also define two…

For any prime $p$ and $S$ a $p$-group isomorphic to a Sylow $p$-subgroup of a rank $2$ simple group of Lie type in characteristic $p$, we determine all saturated fusion systems supported on $S$ up to isomorphism.
