Finite Structures with Few Types. (Am-152), Volume 152

by Ehud Hrushovski and Gregory Cherlin

This book applies model theoretic methods to the study of certain finite permutation groups, the automorphism groups of structures for a fixed finite language with a bounded number of orbits on 4-tuples. Primitive permutation groups of this type have been classified by Kantor, Liebeck, and Macpherson, using the classification of the finite simple groups.

Building on this work, Gregory Cherlin and Ehud Hrushovski here treat the general case...
