| Aug 24, 2021 at 9:14 | comment | added | Noam D. Elkies | It's worth noting that if we allow $G = {\rm PSL}_2(k)$ for non-prime finite fields $k$ then there's the striking further example of $|k|=9$ when $G$ is isomorphic with the alternating group $A_6$ ! | |

| Aug 21, 2021 at 14:35 | comment | added | YCor | Citeseerx link to Kantor's paper. Relevant excerpt: "The first published proof that no exceptions occur for prime 4 > 11 is due to Jordan [17] (reproduced in [19, pp. 666-6671)." [17] C. Jordan. Note sur les équations modulaires, C. R. Acad. Sci. Paris 66 (1868), 308-312. [19] C. Jordan. “Traité des Substitutions et des Equations Algébriques,” Gauthier-Villars, Paris, 1870. | |
| Aug 21, 2021 at 14:07 | comment | added | Sean Eberhard | According to Kantor (see "historical remarks" in mathscinet.ams.org/mathscinet-getitem?mr=549102), the first published proof is due to Jordan. | |
