On the ranks of \(O'N\) and \(Ly\). (Q868395): Difference between revisions

Let \(G\) be a finite group and \(X\) be a conjugacy class of \(G\). The minimum number of elements in \(X\) that generate \(G\) is called the rank of \(X\) in \(G\) and is denoted by \(\text{rank}(X:G)\). In the paper under review the author considers the sporadic simple groups \(O'N\) and \(Ly\), and finds the rank of all conjugacy classes of these groups. Computations carried out in this paper are done using the computer algebra system GAP.
