Abstract
Fixed-point ratios for primitive permutation groups have been extensively studied. Relying on a recent work of Burness and Guralnick, we obtain further results in the area. For a prime and a finite group , we use fixed-point ratios to study the number of Sylow -subgroups of and the minimal size of a covering by proper subgroups of the set of -elements of .
