Designs over finite fields:
◮ GL(, q) = {M ∈ F× q
: M invertible}
◮ σ ∈ GL(, q) automorphism: Bσ = B
◮ Singer cycle:
◮ take ∈ F
q as an element of Fq
◮ (Fq \ {0}, ·) is a cyclic group G of order q − 1, i.e. ◮ G = 〈σ〉 ◮ G ≤ GL(, q) is called Singer cycle
◮ Frobenius automorphism:
◮ ϕ : Fq → Fq, U → Uq ◮ |〈ϕ〉| =
◮ |〈σ, ϕ〉| = · (q − 1)
◮ incidence matrix between t-subset and k-subsets:
Mt,k = (m,j), where m,j =
if T ⊂ Kj else
◮ solve
Mt,k · = λ λ . . . λ for 0/1-vector
Construction of designs with prescribed automorphism group
◮ choose group G acting on V, i.e. G ≤ S ◮ search for t-designs D = (V, B) having G as a group
i.e. for all g ∈ G and K ∈ B =⇒ Kg ∈ B.
◮ construct D = (V, B) as
union of orbits of G on k-subsets.
Definition
◮ K ⊂ V and |K| = k: KG := {Kg | g ∈ G} ◮ T ⊂ V and |T| = t: TG := {Tg | g ∈ G} ◮ Let
