Regular Group Action


A regular group action of a group G on a set X is a group action such that, for every pair of points x,y in X, there is exactly one group element g in G such that gx=y. Equivalently, a regular group action is a group action that is transitive and has trivial stabilizers. A regular group action is also called a simply transitive group action or sharply transitive group action.
