Effective Bounds for the Maximal Order of an Element in the Symmetric Group

Effective Bounds for the Maximal Order of an Element in the Symmetric Group

Let $\sigma _n$ be the symmetric group of n elements and \[ g(n) = \max _{\sigma \in \sigma _n}(\text {order of $\sigma $} ).\] We give here some effective bounds for $g(n)$ and $P(g(n))$ (greatest prime divisor of $g(n)$). Theoretical proofs are in "Evaluation asymptotique de l’ordre maximum d’un élément …
