Extract

In [2], chapter S, and also in the ATLAS ([1], p. 131), we give two presentations for 3 · Suz: 2, the normalizer of a certain 3-element in Conway's largest sporadic simple group Co1. These presentations extend naturally to presentations for groups having Co1 × 2 as image, leading to conjectured presentations for Co1 × 2 and Co1 (see [1], p. 183, although the form of one of the presentations there is slightly different from what we give here).
