When group action on cartesian product is transitive?












2












$begingroup$


Let $G$ be a group acting transitively on sets $Omega$ and $Lambda$. Then there is a natural induced action of $G$ on cartesian product $Omega times Lambda$. I can prove that if $G$ is finite this action is transitive if and only if $G = G_{omega}G_{lambda}$ for all $omegainOmega, lambdainLambda$ (here $G_{omega}$ and $G_{lambda}$ are stabilisers of $omega$ and $lambda$, respectively).




My question. Is this true, when $G$ is infinite group?

          Yes I believe so. This follows from two statenments.




          1. If a group $G$ acts trantively on a set $X$, and $H le G$, then $H$ acts transitively on $X$ if and only if $G = HG_x$ for all $x in X$.


          2. With your hypotheses, $G$ acts trasitively on $Omega times Lambda$ if and only if $G_omega$ acts transitively on $Lambda$ for all (or equivalently some) $omega in Omega$.



          I don't really see how finiteness is involved in either of these claims. Which of these are you unsure of, and in which direction?
