Huppert's conjecture for finite simple exceptional groups of Lie type

Let \(G\) be a finite group, \(\mathrm{Irr}(G)\) the set of its complex irreducible characters and \(\mathrm{cd}(G)= \{\chi(1) \mid \chi \in \mathrm{Irr}(G) \}\).\N\NThe main result in the paper under review is Theorem 1.1: Let \(G\) be a finite group and let \(H\) be a finite simple exceptional group of Lie type. If \(\mathrm{cd}(G)=cd(H)\), then \(G \simeq H \times A\), where \(A\) is abelian.\N\NThis result affirmatively resolves a conjecture proposed by \textit{B. Huppert} in [Ill. J. Math. 44, No. 4, 828--842 (2000; Zbl 0972.20006)], in the case where \(H\) is a simple exceptional group (in [loc. cit.], Huppert had proven that if \(H=\mathrm{PSL}_{2}(2^{f})\) or \(H=\mathrm{Sz}(2^{f})\), then his conjecture holds).
