Block-transitive designs with a poset of imprimitive partitions
Carmen Amarra, Alice Devillers, Cheryl E. Praeger
We study block designs which admit an automorphism group that is transitive on blocks and points, and leaves invariant every partition in a given finite poset of partitions of the…
Linear dimension of group actions
Alice Devillers, Michael Giudici, Daniel R. Hawtin +2
Two fundamental ways to represent a group are as permutations and as matrices. In this paper, we study linear representations of groups that intertwine with a permutation represent…
Proper partial linear spaces affording imprimitive rank 3 automorphism groups
Anton A. Baykalov, Alice Devillers, Cheryl E. Praeger
A partial linear space is a point--line incidence structure such that each line is incident with at least two points and each pair of points is incident with at most one line. It i…
Rank three innately transitive permutation groups and related -transitive groups
Anton A. Baykalov, Alice Devillers, Cheryl E. Praeger
The sets of primitive, quasiprimitive, and innately transitive permutation groups may each be regarded as the building blocks of finite transitive permutation groups, and are analo…
The groups satisfying a functional equation for some
Dominik Bernhardt, Tim Boykett, Alice Devillers +2
We study the groups with the curious property that there exists an element and a function such that holds for all . This propert…
Orbits of Sylow subgroups of finite permutation groups
John Bamberg, Alexander Bors, Alice Devillers +3
We say that a finite group acting on a set has Property for a prime if is a Sylow -subgroup of for all and Sylow -subgroups of …
