On base sizes for primitive groups of product type
Affiliation:School of Mathematics, University of Bristol, Bristol BS8 1UG, UK
Abstract:Let G?Sym(Ω) be a finite permutation group and recall that the base size of G is the minimal size of a subset of Ω with trivial pointwise stabiliser. There is an extensive literature on base sizes for primitive groups, but there are very few results for primitive groups of product type. In this paper, we initiate a systematic study of bases in this setting. Our first main result determines the base size of every product type primitive group of the form L?P?Sym(Ω) with soluble point stabilisers, where Ω=Γk, L?Sym(Γ) and P?Sk is transitive. This extends recent work of Burness on almost simple primitive groups. We also obtain an expression for the number of regular suborbits of any product type group of the form L?P and we classify the groups with a unique regular suborbit under the assumption that P is primitive, which involves extending earlier results due to Seress and Dolfi. We present applications on the Saxl graphs of base-two product type groups and we conclude by establishing several new results on base sizes for general product type primitive groups.
