Abstract:

This is a sequel to "Groupes simples connexes minimaux algébriques de type impair". Here we deal with (possible) minimal connected simple groups of finite Morley rank with involutions which are not PSL2, that is virtual counter-examples to the Cherlin-Zilber Conjecture. We prove a limitation theorem using 0-unipotence theory. No "tameness" required.

Mathematics Subject Classification: 20
