We describe the collection of finite simple groups, with a view on physical applications. We recall first the prime cyclic groups $Z_p$, and the alternating groups $Alt_{n>4}$. After a quick revision of finite fields $\mathbb{F}_q$, $q =…

This is an introduction to finite simple groups, in particular sporadic groups, intended for physicists. After a short review of group theory, we enumerate the $1+1+16=18$ families of finite simple groups, as an introduction to the sporadic…

The purpose of this paper is to explore the concept of localization, which comes from homotopy theory, in the context of finite simple groups. We give an easy criterion for a finite simple group to be a localization of some simple subgroup…

This expository article revolves around the question to find short presentations of finite simple groups. This subject is one of the most active research areas of group theory in recent times. We bring together several known results on…

A subgroup of a finite group G is said to be second maximal if it is maximal in every maximal subgroup of G that contains it. A question which has received considerable attention asks: can every positive integer occur as the number of the…

Many groups possess highly symmetric generating sets that are naturally endowed with an underlying combinatorial structure. Such generating sets can prove to be extremely useful both theoretically in providing new existence proofs for…

We study fundamental groups of non compact Riemannian manifolds. We find conditions which ensure that the fundamental group is trivial, finite or finitely generated.

This is the written version of the Bourbaki seminar given in January 2013 and published in 2014 (modulo an additional early reference added subsequently). It describes the first construction of infinite, finitely generated amenable simple…

We prove that all Mathieu groups, some linear, and unitary groups are factorizable.

We estimate the frequency of polynomial iterations which falls in a given multiplicative subgroup of a finite field of $p$ elements. We also give a lower bound on the size of the subgroup which is multiplicatively generated by the first $N$…

We consider groups of finite Morley rank with solvable local subgroups of even and mixed types. We also consider miscellaneous aspects of small groups of finite Morley rank of odd type.

We give an example of a finitely presented simple group containing a finitely generated subgroup which is not finitely presented.

Let $G$ be a finite group and $cd(G)$ denote the set of complex irreducible character degrees of $G$. In this paper, we prove that if $G$ is a finite group and $H$ is an almost simple group whose socle is Mathieu group such that $cd(G)…

In the paper new criteria of existence and conjugacy of Hall subgroups of finite groups are given.

We propose a general conjecture on decompositions of finite simple groups as products of conjugates of an arbitrary subset. We prove this conjecture for bounded subsets of arbitrary finite simple groups, and for large subsets of groups of…

Here we study the automorphism groups of $1$-designs constructed from finite nonabelian simple groups by using two methods presented in Moori (Information Security, Coding Theory and Related Combinatorics, 2011). We obtain some general…

In this paper we survey a new criteria for solvability of finite groups in terms of number of supersolvable (also known as polycyclic) and non-supersolvable subgroups. In particular, we present original examples of supersolvable groups such…

In our previous paper, we gave a complete list of the finite non-abelian simple groups whose holomorph contains a solvable regular subgroup. In this paper, we refine our previous work by considering all finite almost simple groups. In…

In this paper we create many examples of hyperbolic groups with subgroups satisfying interesting finiteness properties. We give the first examples of subgroups of hyperbolic groups which are of type $FP_2$ but not finitely presented. We…

Necessary and sufficient conditions for finite commutative semihypergroups to be built from abelian groups of the same order are established.
