The authors give a complete characterization of countable primitive groups in several settings including linear groups, subgroups of mapping class groups, groups acting minimally on trees and convergence groups. As an application they calculate the Frattini subgroup in many of these settings, often generalizing results that were only known for finitely generated groups.
