Heilbronn Algebra Seminar - Pete Gautam
13:00 - 14:00 28 April 2026
Title: Fusion systems related to large sporadic groups Abstract: Fusion systems are closely related to groups where we focus only on conjugation (fusion) coming from the group to its p-subgroups. Fusion systems related to sporadic groups have been studied throughout, and many exotic fusion systems have...
