On the Mobius Function of a Finite Group

I will present the results of Hawkes, Isaacs, and Ozaydin from their paper “On the Mobius Function of a Finite Group.”  I will discuss some results in the literature prior to this paper and how the authors’ results generalize previous theorems.  I will end with a theorem of the authors relating the Mobius number of the subgroup lattice of a finite solvable group to the Mobius number of its conjugacy class subgroup poset.

I'm Kim, or Big Mert as I was lovingly named by my family many many years ago. It was between that and Squeaky... do you think they made the right call?
