Description
The 28 articles do not record the talks as given at the conference, but were prepared specifically for these Proceedings, and have undergone a strict refereeing process. Most of them present original research results with proofs, though a few are survey articles by group theory researchers.
This is a volume of research articles related to finite groups. Topics covered include the classification of finite simple groups, the theory of p-groups, cohomology of groups, representation theory and the theory of buildings and geometries. As well as more than twenty original papers on the latest developments, which will be of great interest to specialists, the volume contains several expository articles, from which students and non-experts can learn about the present state of knowledge and promising directions for further research. The Finite Groups 2003 conference was held in honor of John Thompson. The profound influence of his fundamental contributions is clearly visible in this collection of papers dedicated to him.
