Abstract

The main result of the paper is the following

Theorem. Let S = {r0, r1, ..., rn} be a finite nonempty set of primes and let L be a Lie type of Chevalley groups. Then there exists a locally finite field F of characteristic r0 such that Sylow r-subgroups of the simple group L(F) of type L over F are finite if and only if r ∉ S.
