Abstract

Let πe(G) be the set of elements orders of G. Also let sn be the number of elements of order n in G and nse(G)={sn|nπe(G)}. In this paper we prove that if G is a group such that nse(G)=nse(PSL(4,7)), 19||G| and 192|G|, then GPSL(4,7). As a consequence of this result it follows that Thompson's problem is satisfied for the simple group PSL(4,7).
