摘要
We describe a construction of an algebra over the field of order 2 starting from a conjugacy class of 3-transpositions in a group. In particular, we determine which simple Lie algebras arise by this construction. Among other things, this construction yields a natural embedding of the sporadic simple group Fi(22) in the group E-2(6)(2). (c) 2012 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
