Reduced fusion systems over 2-groups of sectional rank at most 4 / Bob Oliver.

The author classifies all reduced, indecomposable fusion systems over finite 2-groups of sectional rank at most 4. The resulting list is very similar to that by Gorenstein and Harada of all simple groups of sectional 2-rank at most 4. But this method of proof is very different from theirs, and is ba...
