β¦ Synopsis
In this paper we consider the action of the simple group F q on the cosets of 4 Ε½ . the maximal subgroup B q . We show that the action is multiplicity-free of rank 4 q q 3; we obtain suborbit representatives and calculate subdegrees, show that all suborbits are self-paired, find that none of the graphs arising from the action is distance-transitive, and give explicitly the decomposition of the permutation character. In addition, we give detailed information on the correspondence between geometric conjugacy classes and semisimple classes which is used in the DeligneαLusztig theory.
