THE -GENERATION OF THE SPECIAL LINEAR GROUPS OVER FINITE FIELDS
Marco Antonio Pellegrini · Bulletin of the Australian Mathematical Society · 2016
We complete the classification of the finite special linear groups $\text{SL}_{n}(q)$ which are $(2,3)$ -generated, that is, which are generated by an involution and an element of order $3$ . This also gives the classification of the finite simple groups $\text{PSL}_{n}(q)$ which are $(2,3)$ -generated.
