Regular-cycle proportion conjecture for primitive permutation groups
Let be a primitive permutation group not covered by the structural conjecture above. For , let denote the number of regular cycles of , and let denote the total number of cycles of , including cycles of length .
Regular-cycle proportion conjecture. There exists an absolute positive constant such that, for every such and every ,
This conjecture predicts a uniform positive proportion of regular cycles outside the exceptional structural family. It is presented in the paper as a further conjecture, and no resolution is supplied in the given text.
