Abstract
In this paper, we investigated some properties associated with the action of symmetric group Sn (n≤7) acting on X(3). If Gx is the stabilizer of , the lengths of the orbits of Gx on X are called sub-degrees and the numbers of orbits are called ranks. Ranks and sub-degrees of symmetric groups Sn (n=1, 2, ----) acting on 2-elements subsets from the set X= (1, 2, ---, n) have been calculated by Higman (1970). He showed that the rank is 3 and the sub-degrees are. Therefore, we extend these calculations to the specific symmetric groups Sn (n≤7) acting on X (3).
Key words: Ranks, sub-degrees, suborbits, primitivity.
