Simple groups: alternating groups and groups of Lie type (20D06) Arithmetic and combinatorial problems involving abstract finite groups (20D60) Generators, relations, and presentations of groups (20F05) Finite simple groups and their classification (20D05)

Abstract: Every nonabelian finite simple group of rank $n$ over a field of size $q$, with the possible exception of the Ree groups ${}^2{G}_2(3^{2e+1})$, has a presentation with a bounded number of generators and relations and total length $O(logn+logq)$. As a corollary, we deduce a conjecture of Holt: there is a constant $C$ such that $dim{H}^2(G,M)leqCdimM$ for every finite simple group $G$, every prime $p$ and every irreducible $F_p[G]$-module $M$.
