Janko group J3


In the area of modern algebra known as group theory, the Janko group J3 or the Higman-Janko-McKay group HJM is a sporadic simple group of order

History and properties

J3 is one of the 26 Sporadic groups and was predicted by Zvonimir Janko in 1969 as one of two new simple groups having 21+4:A5 as a centralizer of an involution.
J3 was shown to exist by.
In 1982 R. L. Griess showed that J3 cannot be a subquotient of the monster group. Thus it is one of the 6 sporadic groups called the pariahs.
J3 has an outer automorphism group of order 2 and a Schur multiplier of order 3, and its triple cover has a unitary 9-dimensional representation over the finite field with 4 elements. constructed it via an underlying geometry. It has a modular representation of dimension eighteen over the finite field with 9 elements.
It has a complex projective representation of dimension eighteen.
