title: Primitive permutation group
text: In mathematics, a permutation group G acting on a non-empty finite set X is called primitive if G acts transitively on X and the only partitions the G-action preserves are the trivial partitions into either a single set or into |X| singleton sets. Otherwise, if G is transitive and G does preserve a nontrivial partition, G is called imprimitive. While primitive permutation groups are transitive, not all transitive permutation groups are primitive. The simplest example is the Klein four-group acti
