Summary

The Quest for Sporadic Simple Groups: A Unified Theory

This book offers a coherent explanation for the existence of the 26 known sporadic simple groups, which initially emerged from diverse and seemingly unrelated areas. The proofs presented here leverage the strong connections between general group theory, ordinary character theory, modular representation theory, and algorithmic algebra, as explored in the first volume.

A novel algorithm is introduced, capable of constructi…
