On unitary collineation groups
If II is a finite projective plane of order q2 over the field K = GF(q2), then 17 admits a polarity 6 which is induced on I7 by a nondegenerate hermitian form on the underlying vector space. The subgroup of the little projective group PSL,(q2) which centralizes 6 is the projective special unitary group PSU,(q). The purpose of this paper is to show that

Opposition diagrams for automorphisms of large spherical buildings [PDF]
Let $\theta$ be an automorphism of a thick irreducible spherical building $\Delta$ of rank at least $3$ with no Fano plane residues. We prove that if there exist both type $J_1$ and $J_2$ simplices of $\Delta$ mapped onto opposite simplices by $\theta ...

On symplectic semifield spreads of PG(5,q2), q odd [PDF]
We prove that there exist exactly three non-equivalent symplectic semifield spreads of PG ( 5 , q2), for q2> 2 .38odd, whose associated semifield has center containing Fq.

Collineation group as a subgroup of the symmetric group [PDF]
Let ψ be the projectivization (i.e., the set of one-dimensional vector subspaces) of a vector space of dimension ≥ 3 over a field. Let H be a closed (in the pointwise convergence topology) subgroup of the permutation group $\mathfrak{S}_\psi $ of the set

LDPC codes from the Hermitian curve [PDF]
In this paper, we study the code C which has as parity check matrix H the incidence matrix of the design of the Hermitian curve and its (q + 1)-secants. This code is known to have good performance with an iterative decoding algorithm, as shown by Johnson

Approximate Lie Symmetry Conditions of Autoparallels and Geodesics
This paper is devoted to the study of approximate Lie point symmetries of general autoparallel systems. The significance of such systems is that they characterize the equations of motion of a Riemannian space under an affine parametrization. In particular, we formulate the first‐order symmetry determining equations based on geometric requirements and ...

On collineations and dualities of finite generalized polygons [PDF]
In this paper we generalize a result of Benson to all finite generalized polygons. In particular, given a collineation theta of a finite generalized polygon S, we obtain a relation between the parameters of S and, for various natural numbers i, the ...

Gauge-reversing maps on cones, and Hilbert and Thompson isometries [PDF]
We show that a cone admits a gauge-reversing map if and only if it is a symmetric cone. We use this to prove that every isometry of a Hilbert geometry is a collineation unless the Hilbert geometry is the projective space of a non-Lorentzian symmetric ...

We introduce a rank 3 geometry for any Ree group over a not necessarily perfect field and show that its full collineation group is the automorphism group of the corresponding Ree group.

On some subvarieties of the Grassmann variety [PDF]
Let $\mathcal S$ be a Desarguesian $(t-1)$--spread of $PG(rt-1,q)$, $\Pi$ a $m$-dimensional subspace of $PG(rt-1,q)$ and $\Lambda$ the linear set consisting of the elements of $\mathcal S$ with non-empty intersection with $\Pi$. It is known that the Pl\"{
