We study when such a localization also induces a localization between the automorphism groups and between the universal central extensions. As a consequence we exhibit many examples of localizations of finite simple groups which are not simple.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2002-10-25T16:59:23.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "finite simple group", "non-simple localizations", "universal central extensions", "localization functor", "automorphism groups" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 10, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2002math.....10405R" } } }
