On Finitary Permutation Groups

In this work we give some sufficient conditions under which the structure of a transitive group of finitary permutations on an infinite set can be determined from the structure of a point stabilizer. Also, we give some sufficient conditions for the existence of a proper subgroup having an infinite orbit in a totally imprimitive p-group of finitary permutations. These results, with the help of some known results, give sufficient conditions for the nonexistence of a perfect locally finite minimal non FC - (p-group).
