On Translation Hyperovals in Semifield Planes [PDF]
In this paper we demonstrate the first example of a finite translation plane which does not contain a translation hyperoval, disproving a conjecture of Cherowitzo. The counterexample is a semifield plane, specifically a Generalised Twisted Field plane, of order $64$. We also relate this non-existence to the covering radius of two associated rank-metric

2-elements in an Autotopism Group of a Semifield Projective Plane
We investigate the well-known hypothesis of D.R. Hughes that the full collineation group of non-Desarguesian semifield projective plane of a finite order is solvable (the question 11.76 in Kourovka notebook was written down by N.D. Podufalov). The spread

Hyperovals in Knuth's binary semifield planes [PDF]
In each of the three projective planes coordinatised by the Knuth's binary semifield $\mathbb{K}_n$ of order $2^n$ and two of its Knuth derivatives, we exhibit a new family of infinitely many translation hyperovals. In particular, when $n=5$, we also present complete lists of all translation hyperovals in them. The properties of some designs associated

Elementary Abelian 2-subgroups in an Autotopism Group of a Semifield Projective Plane
Elementary Abelian 2-subgroups in an Autotopism Group of a Semifield Projective Plane} We investigate the hypotheses on a solvability of the full collineation group for non-Desarguesian semifield projective plane of a finite order (the question 11.76 in ...

Finite semifields and projective planes
NOTE: Text or symbols not renderable in plain ASCII are indicated by [...]. Abstract is included in .pdf document. This paper makes contributions to the structure theory of finite semifields, i.e., of finite nonassociative division algebras with unit.

The nuclei and other properties of p‐primitive semifield planes [PDF]
Publisher Summary This chapter present a study of the class of semifield planes of order p4 and kernel GF(p2) with the property that they admit a p-primitive Baer collineation; these are called “p-primitive semifield planes.”This is the class of planes obtained when the construction method of Hiramine, Matsumoto, and Oyama is applied to the ...

New Semifield Planes of order 81 [PDF]
14 pages. Revised paper (original title: New semifield planes of orders 64 and 81). U. Dempwolff had previously and independently obtained a classification of finite semifields of order 81 (Semifield Planes of Order 81, J. of Geometry (to appear)).

Autotopism groups of cyclic semifield planes [PDF]
Let \(V\) be an \(m\)-dimensional vector space over the finite field \(K\) with \(q^{n}\) elements, \(\sigma\) an automorphism of \(K\) and \(T\) an irreducible \(\sigma\)-linear operator on \(V\). Assume that the fixed field \(K_{0}\) of \(\sigma\) has \(q=p^{f}\) elements, \(p\) prime.
