Conjecture that minimal-base cardinalities form an interval for primitive groups
Conjecture that minimal-base cardinalities form an interval for primitive groups
Let be a primitive permutation group on a domain , and let denote the set of cardinalities of minimal bases of on . Primitive interval conjecture. The set is an interval of natural numbers.
The conjecture reflects the absence of known primitive examples for which the set of minimal-base cardinalities is not an interval. It concerns the structure of minimal bases in primitive permutation groups; the source reports only computational evidence and no additional confirmation.
