摘要
This paper tabulates the results of a number of computer searches in projective planes of order 16. Maximal arcs of degree 4 are found in all but two of the known planes of order 16 (and their duals). Any such arc yields a resolvable 2-(52,4,1) design that admits at least 52 resolutions. Pairs of disjoint degree 4 maximal arcs are also shown to exist in certain of the planes giving rise to 104-sets of type (4, 8). © Birkhäuser Verlag, Basel, 2000.
