Abstract

We consider a finite, connected and simple graph Γ\Gamma that admits a vertex-transitive group of automorphisms GG. Under the assumption that, for all xV(Γ)x \in V(\Gamma), the local action GxΓ(x)G_x^{\Gamma(x)} is the action of Sym(n)\mathrm{Sym}(n) on ordered pairs, we show that the group Gx[3]G_x^{[3]}, the pointwise stabiliser of a ball of radius three around xx, is trivial.
