The -generation of the finite simple odd-dimensional orthogonal groups

M. A. Pellegrini, M. C. Tamburini Bellani

The complete classification of the finite simple groups that are -generated is a problem which is still open only for orthogonal groups. Here, we construct -generato…

The (2,3)-generation of the finite 8-dimensional orthogonal groups

M. A. Pellegrini, M. C. Tamburini Bellani

We construct -generators for the finite -dimensional orthogonal groups, proving the following results: the groups and are -generated if and…

On the (2,3)-generation of the finite symplectic groups

M. A. Pellegrini, M. C. Tamburini Bellani

This paper is a new important step towards the complete classification of the finite simple groups which are -generated. In fact, we prove that the symplectic groups $Sp_{2…

Regular subgroups of the affine group with no translations

M. A. Pellegrini, M. C. Tamburini Bellani

Given a regular subgroup R of AGL_n(F), one can ask if R contains nontrivial translations. A negative answer to this question was given by Liebeck, Praeger and Saxl for AGL_2(p) (p…

More on regular subgroups of the affine group

M. A. Pellegrini, M. C. Tamburini Bellani

This paper is a new contribution to the study of regular subgroups of the affine group , for any field . In particular we associate to any partition …

Scott's formula and Hurwitz groups

M. A. Pellegrini, M. C. Tamburini Bellani

This paper continues previous work, based on systematic use of a formula of L. Scott, to detect Hurwitz groups. It closes the problem of determining the finite simple groups contai…

The simple classical groups of dimension less than 6 which are (2,3)-generated

M. A. Pellegrini, M. C. Tamburini Bellani

In this paper we determine the classical simple groups of dimension r=3,5 which are (2,3)-generated (the cases r = 2, 4 are known). If r = 3, they are PSL_3(q), q <> 4, and PSU_3(q…

Uniform (2,k)-generation of the 4-dimensional classical groups

M. A. Pellegrini, M. C. Tamburini Bellani, M. A. Vsemirnov

In this paper we study the (2,k)-generation of the finite classical groups SL(4,q), Sp(4,q), SU(4,q^2) and their projective images. Here k is the order of an arbitrary element of S…
