Regular Subgroups of a Transitive Substitution Group

Regular Subgroups of a Transitive Substitution Group.

Transitive Group Actions: (im)primitivity and Semiregular Subgroups

The following problem is considered: if H is a semiregular abelian subgroup of a transitive permutation group G acting on a finite set X, find conditions for (non)existence of G-invariant partitions of X and give their description in terms of orbits of H. Conditions and descriptions presented in this paper are derived by studying spectral properties of the associated G-invariant digraphs arisin...

some remarks on regular subgroups of the affine group

‎let $v$ be a vector space over a field $f$ of characteristic $pgeq 0$ and let‎ ‎$t$ be a regular subgroup of the affine group $agl(v)$‎. ‎in the finite dimensional case we show that‎, ‎if $t$ is abelian or $p>0$‎, ‎then $t$ is unipotent‎. ‎for $t$ abelian‎, ‎pushing forward some ideas used in [a‎. ‎caranti‎, ‎f‎. ‎dalla volta and m‎. ‎sala‎, ‎abelian regular subgroups of the affine group and r...

Multiply Transitive Substitution Groups*

A substitution group G of degree n is said to be r-fold transitive if each of the n(n — 1) • • • (n—r + 1) permutations of its n letters taken r at a time is represented by at least one substitution of G. It is not sufficient to say that each of its possible sets of r letters is transformed into every one of these sets by the substitutions of G. For instance, in each of the semi-metacyclic grou...

On the norm of the derived‎ subgroups of all subgroups of a finite group

In this paper‎, ‎we give a complete proof of Theorem 4.1(ii) and a new‎ ‎elementary proof of Theorem 4.1(i) in [Li and Shen‎, ‎On the‎ ‎intersection of the normalizers of the derived subgroups of all‎ ‎subgroups of a finite group‎, ‎ J‎. ‎Algebra, ‎323  (2010) 1349--1357]‎. ‎In addition‎, ‎we also give a generalization of Baer's Theorem‎.
