The author gives a classification of all \(L\)-sharp permutation groups for \(L=\{l,l+1,l+3\}\), and shows that there are no \(L\)-sharp permutation groups for \(L=\{l,l+2,l+3\}\), by using several deep results of \textit{T.~Ito} and \textit{M.~Kiyota} [J. Math. Soc. Japan 33, 435-444 (1981; Zbl 0469.20002)]. To this aim, he generalizes a result of them, showing that there exists a function \(f(s,t)\) such that any \(\{l,l+s,l+s+t\}\)-sharp permutation group has at least \(l-f(s,t)\) fixed points. There are some misprints in the paper; in particular, one of the results of Theorem 2.1 is that \(|F(G)|=l\).
