An ovoid in an orthogonal vector space V of type Ω+(2n, q) or Ω(2n – 1, q) is a set Ω of qn–1 + 1 pairwise non-perpendicular singular points. Ovoids probably do not exist when n > 4 (cf. [12], [6]) and seem to be rare when n = 4. On the other hand, when n = 3 they correspond to affine translation planes of order q2, via the Klein correspondence ...

The translation planes of order 49
Designs, Codes and Cryptography, 1995The authors determine the quantity of classes of isomorphic translation planes of order 49. They report on the computer search for spreads in \(PG (3,7)\) and on classifying the spreads with the computer program NAUTY that looks for graph isomorphisms. The search results in a list of 1347 translation planes in which known planes formerly given by other

A characterization of «likeable» translation planes
Rendiconti del Circolo Matematico di Palermo, 1983A translation plane of order \(q^ 2\) is said to be 'likeable' when it has kern \(GF(q)\) and when its linear translation complement contains a group of order \(q^ 2\) whose elation subgroup consists of elements, which, when the plane is constructed from a spread in \(PG(3,q)\), fix a regulus. Such planes are studied in this paper, mostly in terms of \(

Doubly β-Derived Translation Planes
Designs, Codes and Cryptography, 2003Let \(q>3\) be an odd prime power. A chain of circles in the Miquelian inversive plane \(M(q)\) is a collection of \({1\over 2}(q+3)\) circles such that every point covered by some circle in this set lies on exactly two circles from the collection. Using the correspondence between points and circles of \(M(q)\) and lines and reguli of a regular spread \

Pencils of translation ovals in translation planes
Geometriae Dedicata, 1994Let \({\mathcal T}\) be a translation plane of even order \(q\) with translation line \(I_ \infty\). An oval \({\mathcal O}\) in \({\mathcal T}\) is called a translation oval if \(I_ \infty\) is a tangent at a point \(a\) and if the stabilizer of \({\mathcal O}\) in the translation group acts transitively on \({\mathcal O}\setminus\{a\}\).

Translation planes of order 27
Designs, Codes and Cryptography, 1994Up to isomorphism there are exactly seven, already known translation planes of order 27. The author shows this with the help of a computer and describes the seven types by invariants that play an important role in the computer search. Independently of the computer proof it is shown which of these types occur in the case that there is an elation in the ...

On Translations in General Plane Geometries
American Journal of Mathematics, 1938In a well-known paper, Hilbelt 1 has characterized the Euclidean and hyperbolic plane geometries by mere group and continuity axioms. He gets all the motions at once by requiring the existence of sufficiently many rotations. The present paper tries to point out how the existence of more and more translations gradually specializes the rather general ...

A Classification of Semi-Translation Planes
Canadian Journal of Mathematics, 1969The classification of certain types of projective planes has recently been of considerable interest to both geometers and group theorists. Due in part to the current general interest in finite mathematics and the developments connecting group theory and finite geometry, the Lenz-Barlotti classification of finite projective planes (2; 10), in particular,

Quasigroups and translation planes
Journal of Geometry, 1992A quasigroup \((Q,\cdot)\) is said to be medial if \((x\cdot y)\cdot(z\cdot t)=(x\cdot z)\cdot(y\cdot t)\) for all \(x,y,z,t\in Q\), and is called idempotent if \(x\cdot x=x\) for all \(x\in Q\). If \((R,+,\cdot)\) is the coordinatizating ring of a translation plane and the kernel of \(R\) contains at least one element \(k\) distinct from 0 and 1, then
