Permutation groups
Passman, Donald S.
Permutation groups - New York : Dover Publication, 2012. - v, 152p. : ill. ; 22 cm
"This Dover edition, first published in 2012, is a revised republication of the work originally published in 1968 by W. A. Benjamin Company, Inc., New York."
Includes bibliographical references (p. 147-148) and index.
This volume by a prominent authority on permutation groups consists of lecture notes that provide a self-contained account of distinct classification theorems. A ready source of frequently quoted but usually inaccessible theorems, it is ideally suited for professional group theorists as well as students with a solid background in modern algebra.
The three-part treatment begins with an introductory chapter and advances to an economical development of the tools of basic group theory, including group extensions, transfer theorems, and group representations and characters. The final chapter features thorough discussions of the work of Zassenhaus on Frobenius elements and sharply transitive groups in addition to an exploration of Huppert's findings on solvable doubly transitive groups.
