Rank 3 permutation characters and maximal subgroups
Abstract
In this paper we classify all maximal subgroups M of a nearly simple primitive rank 3 group G of type L=Omega2m+1(3), m > 3; acting on an L-orbit E of non-singular points of the natural module for L such that 1PG <=1MG where P is a stabilizer of a point in E. This result has an application to the study of minimal genera of algebraic curves which admit group actions.
