Zusammenfassung: | This is the first book to contain a rigorous construction and uniqueness proof for the largest and most famous sporadic simple group, the Monster. The author provides a systematic exposition of the theory of the Monster group, which remains largely unpublished despite great interest from both mathematicians and physicists due to its intrinsic connection with various areas in mathematics, including reflection groups, modular forms and conformal field theory. Through construction via the Monster amalgam - one of the most promising in the modern theory of finite groups - the author observes some important properties of the action of the Monster on its minimal module, which are axiomatized under the name of Majorana involutions. Development of the theory of the groups generated by Majorana involutions leads the author to the conjecture that Monster is the largest group generated by the Majorana involutions. |

Through construction via the Monster amalgam - one of the most promising in the modern theory of finite groups - the author observes some important properties of the action of the Monster on its minimal module, which are axiomatized under the name of Majorana involutions. Development of the theory of the groups generated by Majorana involutions leads the author to the conjecture that Monster is the largest group generated by the Majorana involutions.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="546" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">English.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Sporadic groups (Mathematics)</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh86001428</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Involutes (Mathematics)</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85067763</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Groupes sporadiques (Mathématiques)</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Développantes (Mathématiques)</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">MATHEMATICS</subfield><subfield code="x">Group Theory.</subfield><subfield code="2">bisacsh</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Involutes (Mathematics)</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Sporadic groups (Mathematics)</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Monster-Gruppe</subfield><subfield code="2">gnd</subfield><subfield code="0">http://d-nb.info/gnd/4451088-3</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="655" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Electronic books.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="655" ind1=" " ind2="4"><subfield code="a">Electronic books.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="758" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="i">has work:</subfield><subfield code="a">The Monster group and Majorana involutions (Text)</subfield><subfield code="1">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PCFGBjbvwQXT4FcYW8PMdPP</subfield><subfield code="4">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/ontology/hasWork</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="776" ind1="0" ind2="8"><subfield code="i">Print version:</subfield><subfield code="a">Ivanov, A.A.

This is the first book to contain a rigorous construction and uniqueness proof for the largest and most famous sporadic simple group, the Monster. The author provides a systematic exposition of the theory of the Monster group, which remains largely unpublished despite great interest from both mathematicians and physicists due to its intrinsic connection with various areas in mathematics, including reflection groups, modular forms and conformal field theory. Through construction via the Monster amalgam - one of the most promising in the modern theory of finite groups - the author observes some important properties of the action of the Monster on its minimal module, which are axiomatized under the name of Majorana involutions. Development of the theory of the groups generated by Majorana involutions leads the author to the conjecture that Monster is the largest group generated by the Majorana involutions. English.
