Abstract

A group G is an N-barely transitive group (NBT-group) if G acts on an infinite set transitively and faithfully and all proper normal subgroups of G have finite orbits. We investigate the main properties and structure of NBT-groups. We give some examples in non-perfect and perfect case. Also we show that there does not exist a locally soluble perfect cofinitary NBT-group.
