Abstract:

We show that a useful condition of Seitz on finite groups of Lie type over fields of order $q>4$ is often satisfied when $q$ is $2$ or $3$. We also observe that various consequences of the Seitz condition, established by Seitz and Cline, Parshall, and Scott when $q>4$, also hold when $q$ is $3$ or $4$.
