Sp(n) içindeki sonlu p-altgrupları

Hikari classifies all finite p-subgroups of simple algebras, and Banieqbal classifies the finite subgroups of 2×2 matrices over a division algebra of characteristic zero. In this thesis, we give a new proof for the classification of the finite p-subgroups of 2 × 2 matrices over the quaternionic algebra. Using this classification, we classify finite p-subgroups of the symplectic group Sp(2). More precisely, for every prime p, we define a denumerable family of p-subgroups of Sp(2) so that every finite p-subgroup of Sp(2) lives inside one of the members of this family. To give this classification, we proved general results for Sp(n) whenever possible.
