Abstract
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 . Property arose in the recent work of Tornier (2018) on local Sylow -subgroups of Burger-Mozes groups, and he determined the values of for which the alternating group and symmetric group acting on points has Property . In this paper, we extend this result to finite -transitive groups and we give a structural characterisation result for the finite primitive groups that satisfy Property for an allowable prime .
