}}Robert Arnott Wilson (born 1958) is a retired mathematician in London, England, who is best known for his work on classifying the maximal subgroups of finite simple groups and for the work in the Monster group. He is also an accomplished violin, viola and piano player, having played as the principal viola in the Sinfonia of Birmingham. Due to a damaged finger, he now principally plays the kora.[1]Books- {{cite book |last1=Conway |first1=John Horton |authorlink1=John Horton Conway |last2=Curtis |first2=Robert Turner |last3=Norton |first3=Simon Phillips |authorlink3=Simon P.
