In this paper we analyse primitive permutation representations of finite alternating and symmetric groups which have a 2-transitive subconstituent. We show that either the representation belongs to an explicit list of known examples, or the point stabiliser is a known almost-simple 2-transitive grou
A subgroup H of a group G is core-free if H contains no non-trivial normal subgroup of G, or equivalently the transitive permutation representation of G on the cosets of H is faithful. We study the obstacles to a group having large core-free subgroups. We call a subgroup D a ''dedekind'' subgroup of
We characterize the point stabilizers and kernels of finitary permutation representations of infinite transitive groups of finitary permutations. Moreover, the number of such representations is determined.
