Ore's conjecture on commutators in finite non-abelian simple groups
Let be a finite non-abelian simple group, and let . A commutator is an element of the form for some . Ore's conjecture. Every element is a commutator; that is, there exist such that
The conjecture concerns the surjectivity of the commutator map on finite non-abelian simple groups and is presented here as an example of a machine-assisted proof. Its resolution status is not specified in the supplied text.
