A group G is said to be (l, m, n)-generated if it is a quotient of the triangle group T (l , m , n) = ⟨ x , y , z ∣ x l = y m = z n = x y z = 1 ⟩. Moori posed in 1993 the question of finding all the triples (l, m, n) such that non-abelian finite simple groups are (l, m, n)-generated. We partially answer this question for the Fischer sporadic simple group Fi23. In particular, we investigate all (2, q, r)-generations for the Fischer sporadic simple group Fi23, where q and r are distinct prime divisors of |Fi23|. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The Fischer group $Fi_{24}={\rm Aut} (Fi_{24}^{\prime})$ is the largest 3-transposition sporadic group of order 2510411418381323442585600 = 222.316.52.73.11.13.17.23.29. It is generated by a conjugacy class of 306936 transpositions. Wilson [15] completely determined all the maximal 3-local subgroups of Fi24. In the present paper, we determine the Fischer-Clifford matrices and hence compute the character table of the non-split extension 37· (O7(3):2), which is a maximal 3-local subgroup of the automorphism group Fi24 of index 125168046080 using the technique of Fischer-Clifford matrices. Most of the calculations are carried out using the computer algebra systems GAP and MAGMA. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
