Some Maximal Subgroups of Infinite Symmetric Groups
THIS paper concerns maximal subgroups of symmetric groups on infinite, usually countable, sets. Our main aim is to give examples of maximal subgroups which could claim to be almost stabilisers of familiar combinatorial structures. We emphasise that maximal subgroup always means maximal proper subgroup. Throughout this paper, Cl will denote an infinite set, usually countable. The power set of Q ...
متن کاملMaximal Subgroups of Symmetric Groups
A theorem of O’Nan and Scott [6]; [2, Chapter 4] restricts the possibilities for maximal subgroups of finite symmetric groups: they are of six types of which the first four are explicitly known, the fifth involves a finite simple group, and the sixth an action of a simple group. This result, in conjunction with the Classification of Finite Simple Groups, has a number of consequences. In particu...
متن کاملSubgroups of Infinite Symmetric Groups
This paper and its sequel [17] deal with a range of questions about the subgroup structure of infinite symmetric groups. Our concern is with such questions as the following. How can an infinite symmetric group be expressed as the union of a chain of proper subgroups? What are the subgroups that supplement the normal subgroups of an infinite symmetric group? What are the maximal proper subgroups...

متن کاملSubgroups of Small Index in Infinite Symmetric Groups II
Throughout this paper Q will denote an infinite set, S:= Sym(Q) and G is a subgroup of S. If n: = |Q|, the cardinal of Q, then |.S| = 2". Working in ZFC, set theory with Axiom of Choice (AC), we shall be seeking the subgroups G with \S: G\ < 2". If A £ Q then S^ (respectively G{A}) denotes the setwise stabiliser of A in S (respectively in G); 5(A) and G(A) denote pointwise stabilisers; we ident...
