商品描述

This book provides a complete and comprehensive classification of normal 2-coverings of non-abelian simple groups and their generalizations. While offering readers a thorough understanding of these structures, and of the groups admitting them, it delves into the properties of weak normal coverings. The focal point is the weak normal covering number of a group G, the minimum number of proper subgroups required for every element of G to have a conjugate within one of these subgroups, via an element of Aut(G). This number is shown to be at least 2 for every non-abelian simple group and the non-abelian simple groups for which this minimum value is attained are classified. The discussion then moves to almost simple groups, with some insights into their weak normal covering numbers. Applications span algebraic number theory, combinatorics, Galois theory, and beyond. Compiling existing material and synthesizing it into a cohesive framework, the book gives a complete overview of this fundamental aspect of finite group theory. It will serve as a valuable resource for researchers and graduate students working on non-abelian simple groups,

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書提供了對非阿貝爾簡單群及其一般化的正常 2 覆蓋的完整且全面的分類。在為讀者提供對這些結構及其所包含群體的深入理解的同時,還探討了弱正常覆蓋的性質。重點是群體 G 的弱正常覆蓋數,即每個 G 的元素必須在這些子群中的一個內有共軛元素所需的最小適當子群數。這個數量對於每個非阿貝爾簡單群來說至少為 2,並且達到這一最小值的非阿貝爾簡單群被進行了分類。接下來的討論轉向幾乎簡單群,並對其弱正常覆蓋數提供了一些見解。應用範圍涵蓋代數數論、組合學、伽羅瓦理論等領域。本書彙編了現有的材料,並將其綜合成一個連貫的框架,對有限群論的這一基本方面提供了完整的概述。它將成為研究非阿貝爾簡單群的研究人員和研究生的重要資源。
