On some Translation Planes Admitting a Frobenius Group of Collineations
1983
Publisher Summary This chapter presents some results concerning translation planes of dimension 2 over GF(q), where q = p r . π denotes such a plane. It is assumed that π has a collineation group F of order q 2 (q-1) satisfying the condition: there exists a point V e l ∞ such that F fixes V and acts (faithfully) as a Frobenius group on l ∞ – {V}.
A class of unitals of order q which can be embedded in two different planes of order q2
1987
By deriving the desarguesian plane of order q2 for every prime power q a unital of order q is constructed which can be embedded in both the Hall plane and the dual of the Hall plane of order q2 which are non-isomorphic projective planes. The representation of translation planes in the fourdimensional projective space of J. Andre and F. Buekenhouts construction of unitals in these planes are used. It is shown that the full automorphism groups of these unitals are just the collineation groups inherited from the classical unitals.
Kollineationen und Schliessungssätze für Ebene Faserungen
1979
Every affine central collineation of a translation plane π induces a special collineation of the projective space π spanned by the spreadF belonging to π. Here the relations between these special collineations of π and certain incidence propositions inF are investigated; so new proofs are given for some characterisations of (A,B)-regular spreads included in [7].
Multiplicative loops of 2-dimensional topological quasifields
2015
We determine the algebraic structure of the multiplicative loops for locally compact $2$-dimensional topological connected quasifields. In particular, our attention turns to multiplicative loops which have either a normal subloop of positive dimension or which contain a $1$-dimensional compact subgroup. In the last section we determine explicitly the quasifields which coordinatize locally compact translation planes of dimension $4$ admitting an at least $7$-dimensional Lie group as collineation group.
Area minimizing projective planes on the projective space of dimension 3 with the Berger metric
2016
Abstract We show that, among the projective planes embedded into the real projective space R P 3 endowed with the Berger metric, those of least area are exactly the ones obtained by projection of the equatorial spheres of S 3 . This result generalizes a classical result for the projective spaces with the standard metric.
Partial spreads in finite projective spaces and partial designs
1975
A partial t-spread of a projective space P is a collection 5 p of t-dimensional subspaces of P of the same order with the property that any point of P is contained in at most one element of 50. A partial t-spread 5 p of P is said to be a t-spread if each point of P is contained in an element of 5P; a partial t-spread which is not a spread will be called strictly partial. Partial t-spreads are frequently used for constructions of affine planes, nets, and Sperner spaces (see for instance Bruck and Bose [5], Barlotti and Cofman [2]). The extension of nets to affine planes is related to the following problem: When can a partial t-spread 5 ~ of a projective space P be embedded into a larger part…
Zur Hyperebenenalgebraisierung in desargues-Schen projektiven Verbandsgeometrien
1991
As a completion and extension of a result of A. Day and D. Pickering [5] we obtain the following structure theorem in the conceptual frame of projective lattice geometries: In a Desarguesian projective geometry the subgeometry of every at least one-dimensional hyperplane is module induced.
On t-covers in finite projective spaces
1979
A t-cover of the finite projective space PG(d,q) is a setS of t-dimensional subspaces such that any point of PG(d,q) is contained in at least one element ofS. In Theorem 1 a lower bound for the cardinality of a t-coverS in PG(d,q) is obtained and in Theorem 2 it is shown that this bound is best possible for all positive integers t,d and for any prime-power q.
Projective mappings between projective lattice geometries
1995
The concept of projective lattice geometry generalizes the classical synthetic concept of projective geometry, including projective geometry of modules.
Projective Geometry on Modular Lattices
1995
Publisher Summary This chapter focuses on projective geometry on modular lattices. Incidence and Order are basic concepts for a foundation of modern synthetic geometry. These concepts describe the relative location or containment of geometric objects and have led to different lines of geometry, an incidence-geometric and a lattice-theoretic one. Modularity is one of the fundamental properties of classical projective geometry. It makes projections into join-preserving mappings and yields perspectivities to be (interval) isomorphisms. It is therefore natural that order-theoretic generalizations of projective geometry are based on modular lattices and even more, the theory of modular lattices …
