DESCRIPTION:The O'Nan-Scott Theorem classifies finite primitive permutatio
 n groups into one of five isomorphism classes. This theorem is very useful
  for answering questions about finite permutation groups since four out of
  the five isomorphism classes are well understood. The proof of this theor
 em currently relies upon the classification of the finite simple groups\, 
 as it requires a consequence of this classification\, the Schreier Conject
 ure. I will define the five isomorphism classes and prove\, with as much d
 etail as time permits\, the O'Nan-Scott Theorem.\n
