    MSC: Primary 20

    The author classifies all reduced, indecomposable fusion systems over finite \(2\)-groups of sectional rank at most \(4\). The resulting list is very similar to that by Gorenstein and Harada of all simple groups of sectional \(2\)-rank at most \(4\). But this method of proof is very different from theirs, and is based on an analysis of the essential subgroups which can occur in the fusion systems.
