By known results, this reduces the classification of all finite groups with exactly three automorphism orbits to the classification of those that are $p$-groups of exponent $p$ for some odd prime $p$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2020-11-25T20:53:06.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "20D15", "20D45", "11A63", "12E20", "20B10" ], "keywords": [ "automorphism orbits", "automorphism group", "finite groups", "natural action" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 44, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
