Abstract:
Earlier, to confirm that one of the possibilities for the structure of vertex stabilizers of graphs with projective suborbits is realizable, we announced the existence of a connected graph
$\Gamma$ admitting a group of automorphisms
$G$ which is isomorphic to Aut
$(Fi_{22})$ and has the following properties. First, the group
$G$ acts transitively on the set of vertices of
$\Gamma$, but intransitively on the set of
$3$-arcs of
$\Gamma$. Second, the stabilizer in
$G$ of a vertex of
$\Gamma$ induces on the neighborhood of this vertex a group
$PSL_3(3)$ in its natural doubly transitive action. Third, the pointwise stabilizer in
$G$ of a ball of radius 2 in
$\Gamma$ is nontrivial. In this paper, we construct such a graph
$\Gamma$ with
$G ={\rm Aut}(\Gamma)$.
Keywords:
graph, transitive locally projective group of automorphisms, Fischer group $Fi_{22}$.
