Inclusions of Innately Transitive Groups into Wreath Products in Product Action with Applications to 2-arc-transitive Graphs
نویسندگان
چکیده
We study (G, 2)-arc-transitive graphs for innately transitive permutation groups G such that G can be embedded into a wreath product SymΓwr Sl acting in product action on Γ. We find two such connected graphs: the first is Sylvester’s double six graph with 36 vertices, while the second is a graph with 120 vertices whose automorphism group is Aut Sp(4, 4). We prove that under certain conditions no more such graphs exist.

Three Types of Inclusions of Innately Transitive Permutation Groups into Wreath Products in Product Action
A permutation group is innately transitive if it has a transitive minimal normal subgroup, and this subgroup is called a plinth. In this paper we study three special types of inclusions of innately transitive permutation groups in wreath products in product action. This is achieved by studying the natural Cartesian decomposition of the underlying set that correspond to the product action of a w...
متن کاملOn automorphism groups of quasiprimitive 2-arc transitive graphs
We characterize the automorphism groups of quasiprimitive 2-arc-transitive graphs of twisted wreath product type. This is a partial solution for a problem of Praeger regarding quasiprimitive 2-arc transitive graphs. The solution stimulates several further research problems regarding automorphism groups of edge-transitive Cayley graphs and digraphs.
متن کاملProduct of normal edge-transitive Cayley graphs
For two normal edge-transitive Cayley graphs on groups H and K which have no common direct factor and $gcd(|H/H^prime|,|Z(K)|)=1=gcd(|K/K^prime|,|Z(H)|)$, we consider four standard products of them and it is proved that only tensor product of factors can be normal edge-transitive.
متن کاملTwo-geodesic transitive graphs of prime power order
In a non-complete graph $Gamma$, a vertex triple $(u,v,w)$ with $v$ adjacent to both $u$ and $w$ is called a $2$-geodesic if $uneq w$ and $u,w$ are not adjacent. The graph $Gamma$ is said to be $2$-geodesic transitive if its automorphism group is transitive on arcs, and also on 2-geodesics. We first produce a reduction theorem for the family of $2$-geodesic transitive graphs of prime power or...
متن کاملWreath Decompositions of Finite Permutation Groups
There is a familiar construction with two finite, transitive permutation groups as input and a finite, transitive permutation group, called their wreath product, as output. The corresponding 'imprimitive wreath decomposition concept is the first subject of this paper. A formal definition is adopted and an overview obtained for all such decompositions of any given finite, transitive group. The r...
