چکیده

In this paper, we describe a complete computer classification of the hemisystems in the two known flock generalized quadrangles of order (5, 5) and give numerous further examples of hemisystems in all the known flock generalized quadrangles of order (s, s) for s 6 11. By analysing the computational data, we identify two possible new infinite families of hemisystems in the classical generalized quadrangle H(3, s).

Certain Roman and flock generalized quadrangles have nonisomorphic elation groups

We prove that the elation groups of a certain infinite family of Roman generalized quadrangles are not isomorphic to those of associated flock generalized quadrangles.

Isomorphisms of groups related to flocks

A truly fruitful way to construct finite generalized quadrangles is through the detection of Kantor families in the general 5-dimensional Heisenberg group H2(q) over some finite field Fq . All these examples are so-called “flock quadrangles”. Payne (Geom. Dedic. 32:93–118, 1989) constructed from the Ganley flock quadrangles the new Roman quadrangles, which appeared not to arise from flocks, but...

Automorphisms and characterizations of finite generalized quadrangles

Our paper surveys some new developments in the theory of automorphisms and characterizations of finite generalized quadrangles. It is the purpose to mention important new results which did not appear in the following standard works (or surveys) on the subject: Collineations of finite generalized quadrangles (S. E. Payne, 1983), Finite Generalized Quadrangles (S. E. Payne and J. A. Thas, 1984), ...

Translation ovoids of flock generalized quadrangles

We give a characterization of translation ovoids of flock generalized quadrangles. Then we prove that, if q = 2e , each elation generalized quadrangle defined by a flock has a large class of translation ovoids which arise from semifields of dimension two over their left nucleus. Finally, we give some examples when q is odd. © 2003 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved. MSC (2000): Primary 51E12; Se...

A Higman inequality for regular near polygons

The inequality of Higman for generalized quadrangles of order (s, t) with s > 1 states that t ≤ s. We will generalize this by proving that the intersection number ci of a regular near 2d-gon of order (s, t) with s > 1 satisfies the tight bound ci ≤ (s − 1)/(s − 1), and we give properties in case of equality. It is known that hemisystems in generalized quadrangles meeting the Higman bound induce...
