Abstract:
We prove that if a finite simple linear or unitary group defined over a field of characteristic p and having dimension sufficiently large as compared with p acts on a finite-dimensional vector space over some field of the same characteristic p, then the corresponding semidirect product contains an element whose order is distinct from any element order of the simple group.
