What is recorded here?
Proved that every finite group of odd order is solvable, eliminating nonabelian finite simple groups of odd order and supplying a major structural theorem for finite-group theory.
Source-linked catalogue note. A detailed explanatory guide has not yet been prepared for this entry.
Scientific scope
The record is the exact two-author 1963 Pacific Journal of Mathematics paper. The theorem concerns finite groups of odd order and does not by itself constitute the classification of finite simple groups or absorb later simplifications and extensions.
