to helmut wielandt on the occasion of his 90th birthday We investigate the finite primitive permutation groups G which have a transitive subgroup containing no nontrivial subnormal subgroup of G. The conclusion is that such primitive groups are rather rare, and that their existence is intimately co

A coherent algebra is F-primitive if each of its non-identity basis matrices is primitive in the sense of Frobenius. We investigate the relationship between the primitivity of a permutation group, the primitivity of its centralizer algebra, and F-primitivity. The results obtained are applied to give

A well-developed branch of asymptotic group theory studies the properties of classes of linear and permutation groups as functions of their degree. We refer to the surveys of Cameron [4] and Pyber [17,18] and the recent paper by Pyber and Shalev [19] for a detailed exposition of this subject. In thi

A base of a permutation group G is a sequence B of points from the permutation domain such that only the identity of G fixes B pointwise. We show that primitive permutation groups with no alternating composition factors of degree greater than d and no classical composition factors of rank greater th
