Generators for maximal subgroups of Conway group Co1

Abstract

The Conway groups are the three sporadic simple groups Co1, Co2 and Co3. There are total of 22 maximal subgroups of Co1 and generators of 6 maximal subgroups are provided in web Atlas of finite simple groups. The aim of this paper is to give generators of remaining 16 maximal subgroups.
