Finite permutation groups that act with fixity 4

Year: 2026

Type: preprint

Abstract: Motivated by the theory of Riemann surfaces and specifically the significance of Weierstrass points, we prove general structure results about finite groups that have a faithful transitive action with fixity 4. We also explain examples for many different possibilities of such actions.
