Description
Let $p$ be a prime and$S$ a finite $p$-group. A $p$-fusion system on $S$ is a category whose objects are the subgroups of $S$ and whose morphisms are certain injective group homomorphisms.
Fusion systems are of interest in modular representation theory, algebraic topology, and local finite group theory.
The book provides a characterization of the 2-fusion systems of the groups of Lie type and odd characteristic, a result analogous to the Classical Involution Theorem for groups.
The theorem is the most difficult step in a two-part program.
The first part of the program aims to determine a large subclass of the class of simple 2-fusion systems, while part two seeks to use the result on fusion systems to simplify the proof of the theorem classifying the finite simple groups.
