-generation of finite simple groups.
2010 Mathematics Subject Classification: 20F05, 20D06.We prove that the group PSL6(q) is (2,3)-generated for any q. In fact, we provide explicit generators x and y of orders 2 and 3, respectively, for the group SL6(q).
We present a short and self-contained proof of the extension property for partial isometries of the class of all finite metric spaces.
We prove that an Artin-Tits group of type is the group of fractions of a Garside monoid, analogous to the known dual monoids associated with Artin-Tits groups of spherical type and obtained by the “generated group” method. This answers, in this particular case, a general question on Artin-Tits groups, gives a new presentation of an Artin-Tits group of type , and has consequences for the word problem, the computation of some centralizers or the triviality of the center. A key point of the proof...
is the group presented by . In this paper, we study the structure of . We also give a new efficient presentation for the Projective Special Linear group and in particular we prove that is isomorphic to under certain conditions.
