Coding Theory, Design Theory, Group Theory: Proceedings of The Marshall Hall Conference

Contains papers prepared for the 1990 multidisciplinary conference held to honor the late mathematician and researcher. Topics include applications of classic geometry to finite geometries and designs; multiple transitive permutation groups; low dimensional groups and their geometry; difference sets in 2-groups; construction of Galois groups; construction of strongly p-imbeded subgroups in finite simple groups; Hall triple systems, Fisher spaces and 3-transposition groups; explicit embeddings in finitely generated groups; 2-transitive and flag transitive designs; efficient representations of perm groups; codes and combinatorial designs; optimal normal bases for finite fields; vector space designs from quadratic forms and inequalities; primitive permutation groups, graphs and relation algebras; large sets of ordered designs, orthogonal 1-factorizations and hyperovals; algebraic integers all of whose algebraic conjugates have the same absolute value.
