The semiprimitivity characterization of graph-restrictive permutation groups

Let LL be a transitive permutation group. It is semiprimitive if each of its normal subgroups is either transitive or semiregular, and it is graph-restrictive if there exists a constant c(L)c(L) such that, for every connected locally-LL pair (Γ,G)(\Gamma,G) and every arc (u,v)(u,v) of Γ\Gamma, one has Guvc(L)|G_{uv}|\leq c(L). Semiprimitivity characterization conjecture. A permutation group is graph-restrictive if and only if it is semiprimitive. The conjecture seeks a characterization of graph-restrictive groups and, in the source, is motivated by results extending methods for primitive groups to semiprimitive groups; its resolution is not stated there.
