Diameter of classical groups generated by transvections

Sean Eberhard

Let $G$ be a finite classical group generated by transvections, i.e., one of $SL_{n} (q)$ , $SU_{n} (q)$ , $Sp_{2 n} (q)$ , or $\operatorname{O}^\…

Dixon's asymptotic without CFSG

Sean Eberhard

Without using the classification of finite simple groups, we show that the probability that two random elements of $S_{n}$ generate a primitive group smaller than $A_{n}$ is at most $\…

Conjugacy classes of derangements in finite groups of Lie type

Sean Eberhard, Daniele Garzoni

Let $G$ be a finite almost simple group of Lie type acting faithfully and primitively on a set $Ω$ . We prove an analogue of the Boston--Shalev conjecture for conjugacy classes: the…
