Finitary Permutation Groups
نویسنده
چکیده
A finitary permutation group is a natural generalization of a finite permutation group. The structure of a transitive finitary permutation group is surprisingly simple when its degree is infinite. Here we study primitivity, following P. M. Neumann’s work in the 1970s. We also study generalized solubility conditions on these groups. These notes arose from lectures aimed at an audience who had seen some basic permutation group theory, but little abstract group theory.

Conjugacy growth series for wreath product finitary symmetric groups
In recent work, Bacher and de la Harpe define and study conjugacy growth series for finitary permutation groups. In two subsequent papers, Cotron, Dicks, and Fleming study the congruence properties of some of these series. We define a new family of conjugacy growth series for the finitary alternating wreath product that are related to sums of modular forms of integer and half-integral weights, ...
متن کاملClosed Groups Induced by Finitary Permutations and Their Actions on Trees
We describe permutation groups G ≤ Sym(ω) such that G is the closure of the subgroup of all elements with finite support and G can be realized as Aut(M) where M is a saturated structure. We also study isometric actions of such groups on real trees.
متن کاملFinitary Actions and Invariant Ideals
Let K be a field and let G be a group. If G acts on an abelian group V , then it acts naturally on any group algebra K[V ], and we are concerned with classifying the G-stable ideals of K[V ]. In this paper, we consider a rather concrete situation. We take G to be an infinite locally finite simple group acting in a finitary manner on V . When G is a finitary version of a classical linear group, ...
متن کاملLawlessness and Rank Restrictions in Certain Finitary Groups
We give two applications of the recent classification of locally finite simple finitary skew linear groups. We show that certain irreducible finitary skew linear groups of infinite dimension, generate the variety of all groups and have infinite Prüfer rank.
متن کاملQUASI-PERMUTATION REPRESENTATIONS OF METACYCLIC 2-GROUPS
By a quasi-permutation matrix we mean a square matrix over the complex field C with non-negative integral trace. Thus, every permutation matrix over C is a quasipermutation matrix. For a given finite group G, let p(G) denote the minimal degree of a faithful permutation representation of G (or of a faithful representation of G by permutation matrices), let q(G) denote the minimal degree of a fa...
