| Abstract: | The article contains two characterizations of projective linear groups PGL2(P) over a locally finite field P of characteristic 2: the first is defined in terms of permutation groups, and the second, in terms of a structure of involution centralizers. One of the two is used to prove the existence of infinite groups which are recognizable by the set of their element orders. In memory of Viktor A. Gorbunov Supported by RFFR grant No. 99-01-00550.
