摘要

We present recent progress on problems by G. Malle, J. Saxl, T. Weigel, and the author concerning generating sets of involutions with properties of minimal cardinality for finite simple groups and formulate a number of new problems on this topic. We indicate necessary and sufficient conditions for a finite group generated by three involutions, two of which commute, to be a group of automorphisms of a regular 3-polytope.
