Abstract
All groups of free homeomorphisms of the real line are determined up to topological conjugacy. Surprisingly, many of them are lacunary in the sense that no orbit is dense, although the groups themselves (with the exception of the infinite cyclic group) are dense subgroups of R +. Such pathological behaviour is, however, impossible for normal subgroups of transitive groups.
