Examines the internal structure of the finite simple groups of Lie type, the finite alternating groups, and 26 sporadic finite simple groups, as well as their a

The fifth volume of the study proves two, and part of the third, of the planned five stages for the generic cast of the classification of finite simple groups.

The second volume of a series devoted to reorganizing and simplifying proof of the classification of the finite simple groups. In a single chapter, it lays the

Provides an outline and modern overview of the classification of the finite simple groups. It primarily covers the 'even case', where the main groups arising ar
