Dixon's strong 2-generation conjecture for finite simple groups
Dixon's strong 2-generation conjecture for finite simple groups
Let be any sequence of finite simple groups such that tends to infinity with . Let denote the probability that two randomly chosen elements generate . Dixon's conjecture. The probability satisfies
This extends Netto's asymptotic generation prediction from alternating groups to arbitrary sequences of finite simple groups whose orders tend to infinity.
