Abstract:
This is the second in a series of papers whose results imply the validity of a strengthened version of the Sims conjecture on finite primitive permutation groups. In this paper, the case of primitive groups with simple socle of exceptional Lie type and non-parabolic point stabilizer is considered.
Keywords:finite primitive permutation group, almost simple group, group of exceptional Lie type, stabilizer of a point, Sims conjecture.
