CINECA IRIS Institutional Research Information System
IRIS è la soluzione IT che facilita la raccolta e la gestione dei dati relativi alle attività e ai prodotti della ricerca. Fornisce a ricercatori, amministratori e valutatori gli strumenti per monitorare i risultati della ricerca, aumentarne la visibilità e allocare in modo efficace le risorse disponibili.
EnglishRecently, Blokhuis and Metsch proved that a Desarguesian projective plane of square order q^2>=25 contains no minimal blocking q^3-set. Since for q=4 the existence is proved, the problem is open when q^2 =9, 16. In this paper we prove the theorem for q=9. Since the techniques are of combinatorial type, based on incidence properties, the result holds also in non-Desarguesian cases. The lenght of the proof shows the difficulty to treat this subject in a general finite projective plane.

| Abstract: | Recently, Blokhuis and Metsch proved that a Desarguesian projective plane of square order q^2>=25 contains no minimal blocking q^3-set. Since for q=4 the existence is proved, the problem is open when q^2 =9, 16. In this paper we prove the theorem for q=9. Since the techniques are of combinatorial type, based on incidence properties, the result holds also in non-Desarguesian cases. The lenght of the proof shows the difficulty to treat this subject in a general finite projective plane. |
