Sharply 2-transitive Groups with Point Stabilizer of Exponent 3 or 6
نویسنده
چکیده
Using the fact that all groups of exponent 3 are nilpotent, we show that every sharply 2-transitive permutation group whose point stabilizer has exponent 3 or 6 is finite.

Sharply 2-transitive sets of permutations and groups of affine projectivities
Using new results on sharply transitive subsets, we determine the groups of projectivities of finite affine planes, apart from (unknown) planes of order 23 or 24. The group of all projectivities of a geometry G is a measure for the complexity of G: this group tends to be rather large if G is far from being a classical geometry. See [PS81] for more information on the role of projectivities in ge...
متن کاملSpecial Moufang Sets, Their Root Groups and Their Μ-maps
We prove Timmesfeld’s conjecture that special abstract rank one groups are quasisimple. We show that in a special Moufang set the root groups are characterized on the one hand by being regular and normal in the point stabilizer, and on the other hand a normal transitive nilpotent subgroup of the point stabilizer is a root group. We prove that if a root group of a special Moufang set contains an...

We give an explicit construction of sharply 2-transitive groups with fixed point free involutions and without nontrivial abelian normal subgroup.
متن کاملProper Moufang Sets with Abelian Root Groups Are Special
Moufang sets are the Moufang buildings of rank one. They were introduced by J. Tits [T1] as a tool for studying algebraic groups of relative rank one. They are essentially equivalent to split BN -pairs of rank one, and as such they have been studied extensively. In some sense they are the basic ‘building blocks’ of all split BN -pairs. In the finite case, it had been a major project to classify...
متن کاملFinite permutation groups of rank 3
By the rank of a transitive permutation group we mean the number of orbits of the stabilizer of a point thus rank 2 means multiple transitivity. Interest is drawn to the simply transitive groups of "small" rank > 2 by the fact that every known finite simple group admits a representation as a primitive group of rank at most 5 while not all of these groups have doubly transitive representations. ...
