Let $G$ be a finite primitive permutation group on a set $\Omega$ with point stabiliser $H$. Recall that a subset of $\Omega$ is a base for $G$ if its pointwise stabiliser is trivial. We define the base size of $G$, denoted $b(G,H)$, to be…
Let $G$ be a permutation group on a set $\Omega$. A subset of $\Omega$ is a base for $G$ if its pointwise stabilizer is trivial; the base size of $G$ is the minimal cardinality of a base. In this paper we initiate the study of bases for…
Let $G \leqslant {\rm Sym}(\Omega)$ be a finite almost simple primitive permutation group, with socle $G_0$ and point stabilizer $H$. A subset of $\Omega$ is a base for $G$ if its pointwise stabilizer is trivial; the base size of $G$,…
Let $G$ be a permutation group on a set $\Omega$. A subset of $\Omega$ is a base for $G$ if its pointwise stabiliser in $G$ is trivial. In this paper we introduce and study an associated graph $\Sigma(G)$, which we call the Saxl graph of…
Let $G$ be a finite permutation group acting on $\Omega$. A base for $G$ is a subset $B \subseteq \Omega$ such that the pointwise stabilizer $G_{(B)}$ is the identity. The base size of $G$, denoted by $b(G)$, is the cardinality of the…
Let G be a permutation group, acting on a set \Omega of size n. A subset B of \Omega is a base for G if the pointwise stabilizer G_(B) is trivial. Let b(G) be the minimal size of a base for G. A subgroup G of Sym(n) is large base if there…
Let $G$ be a permutation group on a finite set $\Omega$. The base size of $G$ is the minimal size of a subset of $\Omega$ with trivial pointwise stabiliser in $G$. In this paper, we extend earlier work of Fawcett by determining the precise…
If $G$ is a group of permutations of a set $\Omega$ and $\alpha \in \Omega$, then the {\em $\alpha$-suborbits} of $G$ are the orbits of the stabilizer $G_\alpha$ on $\Omega$. The cardinality of an $\alpha$-suborbit is called a {\em…
A transitive group $G$ of permutations of a set $\Omega$ is primitive if the only $G$-invariant equivalence relations on $\Omega$ are the trivial and universal relations. If $\alpha \in \Omega$, then the orbits of the stabiliser $G_\alpha$…
Let $G$ be a transitive permutation group on a finite set $\Omega$ and recall that a base for $G$ is a subset of $\Omega$ with trivial pointwise stabiliser. The base size of $G$, denoted $b(G)$, is the minimal size of a base. If $b(G)=2$…
A base B for a finite permutation group G acting on a set X is a subset of X with the property that only the identity of G can fix every point of B. We prove that a primitive diagonal group G has a base of size 2 unless the top group of G…
We show that the minimal base size $b(G)$ of a finite primitive permutation group $G$ of degree $n$ is at most $2 (\log |G|/\log n) + 24$. This bound is asymptotically best possible since there exists a sequence of primitive permutation…
Let $G$ be a finite solvable permutation group acting faithfully and primitively on a finite set $\Omega$. Let $G_0$ be the stabilizer of a point $\alpha \in \Omega$ The rank of $G$ is defined as the number of orbits of $G_0$ in $\Omega$,…
A base for a permutation group $G$ acting on a set $\Omega$ is a subset $\mathcal{B}$ of $\Omega$ such that the pointwise stabiliser $G_{(\mathcal{B})}$ is trivial. Let $n$ and $r$ be positive integers with $n>2r$. The symmetric and…
In this paper we show that if $G$ is a primitive subgroup of $S_{n}$ that is not large base, then any irredundant base for $G$ has size at most $5 \log n$. This is the first logarithmic bound on the size of an irredundant base for such…
For a set $\Omega$ an unordered relation on $\Omega$ is a family R of subsets of $\Omega.$ If R is such a relation we let G(R) be the group of all permutations on $\Omega$ that preserves R, that is g belongs to G(R) if and only if x in R…
An irredundant base of a group $G$ acting faithfully on a finite set $\Gamma$ is a sequence of points in $\Gamma$ that produces a strictly descending chain of pointwise stabiliser subgroups in $G$, terminating at the trivial subgroup.…
Let $G \leqslant {\rm Sym}(\Omega)$ be a finite permutation group and recall that the base size of $G$ is the minimal size of a subset of $\Omega$ with trivial pointwise stabiliser. There is an extensive literature on base sizes for…
Let $G$ be a finite permutation group on $\Omega$. An ordered sequence of elements of $\Omega$, $(\omega_1,\dots, \omega_t)$, is an irredundant base for $G$ if the pointwise stabilizer $G_{(\omega_1,\dots, \omega_t)}$ is trivial and no…
Let $G$ be a permutation group on a finite set $\Omega$. A subset $B \subseteq \Omega$ is a base for $G$ if the pointwise stabilizer of $B$ in $G$ is trivial. The base size of $G$, denoted $b(G)$, is the smallest size of a base. A well…
