Review text

The authors investigate periodic groups saturated with finite simple symplectic groups. A group \(G\) is called saturated with a set \(M\) of finite groups if every finite subgroup of \(G\) is contained in a subgroup isomorphic to an element of \(M\). The paper focuses on the case where \(M = \{ S_{2m}(q) \mid q \text{ odd} \}\), with \(S_{2m}(q)\) denoting the finite simple symplectic group of degree \(2m\) over a finite field of order \(q\).\N\NThe main result asserts that if a periodic group \(G\) is saturated with symplectic groups and it has locally finite centralizers of involutions, then \(G\) is locally finite and isomorphic to a symplectic group \(S_{2m}(F)\) over some locally finite field \(F\) of odd characteristic.\N\NThe proof relies on detailed analysis of the structure of centralizers of involutions in symplectic groups, derived in preliminary lemmas.
