Abstract

In this paper we give a self-contained existence and uniqueness proof for the sporadic O'Nan group ON by showing that it is uniquely determined up to isomorphism by the centralizer H of a 2-central involution z. We establish for such a simple group G a presentation in terms of generators and defining relations and a faithful permutation representation of degree 2.624.832 with a uniquely determined stabilizer isomorphic to the small sporadic Janko group J1. We also calculate its character table by new methods and determine a system of representatives of the conjugacy classes of G.
