A geometrical construction of the oval(s) associated with an a-flock
نویسندگان
چکیده
It is known, via algebraic methods, that a flock of a quadratic cone in PGð3; qÞ gives rise to a family of qþ 1 ovals of PGð2; qÞ and similarly that a flock of a cone over a translation oval that is not a conic gives rise to an oval of PGð2; qÞ. In this paper we give a geometrical construction of these ovals and provide an elementary geometrical proof of the construction. Further we also give a geometrical construction of a spread of the GQ T2ðOÞ for O an oval corresponding to a flock of a translation oval cone in PGð3; qÞ, previously constructed alge-

Isomorphisms Between Subiaco q–Clan Geometries
For q = 2e, e ≥ 4, the Subiaco construction introduced in [2] provides one q–clan, one flock, and for e 6≡ 2 (mod 4), one oval in PG(2, q). When e ≡ 2 (mod 4), there are two inequivalent ovals. The associated generalised quadrangle of order (q, q) has a complete automorphism group G of order 2e(q − 1)q. For each Subiaco oval O there is a group of collineations of PG(2, q) induced by a subgroup ...
متن کاملOccurrence of purulent mandibular and maxillary osteomyelitis associated with Pseudomonas aeruginosa in a sheep flock in south-west of Iran
This report describes an outbreak of purulent mandibular and/or maxillary osteomyelitis caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa in a sheep flock located in the Khuzestan province, Iran. Jaw bones of almost 100 out of 500 mature sheep in a flock became severely deformed with a variably sized firm swelling, without any signs of inflammation in the surrounding soft tissues. The affected animals showed an...
متن کاملA cross-sectional study of the seroprevalence and flock-level factors associated with ovine and caprine brucellosis in southeastern Iran
This cross-sectional study was conducted to estimate seroprevalence and to identify flock-level factors associated with seropositivity to brucellosis in small ruminants in Kerman province, southeastern Iran. In October-November 2011, serum samples were randomly collected from 1767 sheep and 1233 goats, older than 18 months, from 300 flocks. The sera were initially screened for the presence of a...
متن کاملMonomial Flocks and Herds Containing a Monomial Oval
Let F be a flock of the quadratic cone Q: X 2=X1X3 , in PG(3, q), q even, and let 6t : X0 =xt X1 + t X2 +zt X3 , t # Fq , be the q planes defining the flock F. A flock is equivalent to a herd of ovals in PG(2, q), q even, and to a flock generalized quadrangle of order (q, q). We show that if the herd contains a monomial oval, this oval is the Segre oval. This implies a result on the existence o...
متن کاملCollineations of the Subiaco generalized quadrangles
Each generalized quadrangle (GQ) of order (q2, q) derived in the standard way from a conical flock via a q-clan with q = 2e has subquadrangles of order q associated with a family of q + 1 (not necessarily projectively equivalent) ovals in PG(2, q). A new family of these GQ is announced in [1] and named the Subiaco GQ. We begin a study of their collineation groups. When e is odd, e ≥ 5, the grou...
