Abstract

We discuss basic structural properties of finite black box groups. A special emphasis is made on the use of centralisers of involutions in probabilistic recognition of black box groups. In particular, we suggest an algorithm for finding the $p$-core of a black box group of odd characteristic. This special role of involutions suggest that the theory of black box groups reproduces, at a non-deterministic level, some important features of the classification of finite simple groups.
