Review text

This lecture gives, with the author's usual conciseness and clarity, an account of the work of many authors on the classification of finite subgroups of a reductive group over \(\mathbb C\). This is classically equivalent to the study of finite subgroups of compact Lie groups, and can be seen as a generalization of the classical list of subgroups of the special orthogonal group \(\text{SO}_3(\mathbb R)\). The following aspects are included: embeddings of finite Abelian groups and connection with cohomology, embeddings of finite simple groups (for instance, a necessary and sufficient condition is given for the existence of an embedding of \(\text{SL}_2(\mathbb F_q)\) in terms of the exponents of the corresponding Weyl group), projective embeddings of finite simple groups into exceptional groups. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0939.00019].
