In other words, there is an isomorphism between a Sylow p-subgroup of G and one of G' which preserves p-fusion. This occurs, for example, when G=H(q) and G'=H(q') for a simple Lie type H, and q and q' are prime powers, both prime to p, which generate the same closed subgroup of the p-adic units. Our proof uses homotopy theoretic properties of the p-completed classifying spaces of G and G', and we know of no purely algebraic proof of this result.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2011-07-06T06:23:44.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "20D06", "55R37" ], "keywords": [ "finite groups", "equivalences", "homotopy theoretic properties", "simple lie type", "prime powers" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "AMS", "journal": "J.
