Primitive collineation groups of ovals with a fixed point
We investigate collineation groups of a finite projective plane of odd order n fixing an oval and having two orbits on it, one of which is assumed to be primitive. The situation in which the group fixes a point off the oval is considered. We prove that it occurs in a Desarguesian plane if and only if (n + 1)/2 is an odd prime, the group lying in the normalizer of a Singer cycle of PGL(2, n) in ...
متن کاملIntransitive collineation groups of ovals fixing a triangle
We investigate collineation groups of a finite projective plane of odd order fixing an oval and having two orbits on it, one of which is assumed to be primitive. The situation in which there exists a fixed triangle off the oval is considered in detail. Our main result is the following. Theorem. Let p be a finite projective plane of odd order n containing an oval O: If a collineation group G of ...
متن کاملCollineation Groups Which Are Primitive on an Oval of a Projective Plane of Odd Order
It is shown that a projective plane of odd order, with a collineation group acting primitively on the points of an invariant oval, must be desarguesian. Moreover, the group is actually doubly transitive, with only one exception. The main tool in the proof is that a collineation group leaving invariant an oval in a projective plane of odd order has 2-rank at most three.
متن کاملSome Remarks on Commuting Fixed Point Free Automorphisms of Groups
In this article we will find necessary and sufficient conditions for a fixed point free automorphism (fpf automorphism) of a group to be a commuting automorphism. For a given prime we find the smallest order of a non abelian p-group admitting a commuting f...
متن کاملInfinite groups with fixed point properties
We construct finitely generated groups with strong fixed point properties. Let Xac be the class of Hausdorff spaces of finite covering dimension which are mod-p acyclic for at least one prime p. We produce the first examples of infinite finitely generated groups Q with the property that for any action of Q on any X ∈ Xac, there is a global fixed point. Moreover, Q may be chosen to be simple and...
