Finite permutation groups that act with fixity 4

Motivated by the theory of Riemann surfaces and specifically the significance of Weierstrass points, we prove general structure results about finite groups that have a faithful transitive action with fixity 4. We also explain examples for many different possibilities of such actions.

Corrigendum and addendum to "Transitive permutation groups where nontrivial elements have at most two fixed points"

This article revisits earlier work by the second author together with Kay Magaard. We correct several little results and we briefly discuss why, fortunately, the errors hardly affect our main theorems and in particular do not affect the classification of simple groups that act with fixity 2. As an addition to the submitted article, this version also contains GAP code in a little appendix at the end.

Finite simple permutation groups acting with fixity 4

Motivated by the theory of Riemann surfaces and specifically the significance of Weierstrass points, we classify all finite simple groups that have a faithful transitive action with fixity 4, along with details about all possible such actions.

Orbital Graphs

We introduce orbital graphs and discuss some of their basic properties. Then we focus on their usefulness for search algorithms for permutation groups, including finding the intersection of groups and the stabilizer of sets in a group.
