Proposition: Let G be doubly transitive on Ω and let ∆ be a<br />

transitive G-set. Then exactly one <strong>of</strong> the following is true:<br />

(i) There exists an injective F G-homorphism ϕ: F Ω → F ∆,<br />

(ii) G = G ω · G δ for all ω ∈ Ω and δ ∈ ∆.<br />

In particular, in the embedding case (i), if a <strong>cyclic</strong> subgroup C<br />

has a regular orbit on Ω then C has a regular orbit on ∆, by<br />

the Lemma on <strong>cyclic</strong> permutation modules. So we are done in<br />

this case.
