The number of regular semisimple conjugacy classes in the finite classical groups

Jason Fulman, Robert Guralnick

Published 2012-09-15Version 1

Using generating functions, we enumerate regular semisimple conjugacy classes in the finite classical groups. For the general linear, unitary, and symplectic groups this gives a different approach to known results; for the special orthogonal groups the results are new.
