Abstract
What can one say about maximal subgroups, or, more generally, the subgroup structure of simple, finite, or algebraic groups? In this survey, we will discuss how group representation theory helps us study this classical problem. These results have been applied to various problems, particularly in group theory, number theory, and algebraic geometry.
