Harada-Norton group

Harada-Norton group

In the mathematical field of group theory, the Harada-Norton group "HN" (found by Koichiro Harada (1975) and Simon Norton (1975)) is a sporadic simple group of order

: 214 · 36 · 56 · 7 · 11 · 19 : = 273030912000000: ≈ 3 · 1014.

The prime 5 plays a special role in the group. For example, it centralizes an element of order 5 in the Monster group, and as a result acts naturally on a vertex operator algebra over the field with 5 elements.
