Review text

Let G be a permutation group acting on a set \(\Omega\). A subset \(\Lambda\) of \(\Omega\) is called regular if the set stabilizer of \(\Lambda\) in G is trivial. In this paper the authors prove that if \(G\leq P\Gamma L(d,q)\), \(d\geq 2\), \(q\geq 3\), acting primitively on the points of PG(d-1,q) without containing the alternating group of the same degree, then G possesses a regular set unless \(d=2\) and \(q\in \{4,5,7,8,9,11,16\}\) or \(d=3\) and \(q\in \{3,4\}\). A similar theorem for subgroups of \(A\Gamma\) L(d,q) acting on AG(d,q) holds.
