Review text

Let \(\mathcal{PQ}\) denote the set of positive integers \(n\) such that \(n\) is a product of two distinct primes such that \(\gcd(n,\varphi(n))=1\); let \(\mathcal R\) be the set of all \(n\in\mathcal{PQ}\) such that any imprimitive permutation group of degree \(n\) is multiplicity-free. The main result of the paper is Theorem 1.1 which says that \(\mathcal{PQ}\setminus\mathcal R=\{pq\mid q\equiv 2\pmod p\), where \(q\) is a Fermat prime and \(p\) is a prime\}. The result depends on the classification of permutation groups of prime degree (via the classification of finite simple groups).
