A Search for Spreads of Hermitian Unitals

Combinatorics 2017-02-07 v1

Abstract

A spread of a Hermitian unital in PG(2,q^2) is a set of q^2+q+1 pairwise disjoint blocks that partition the points of the unital. In this paper, we discuss the results of an exhaustive computer search for spreads of Hermitian unitals of small orders, namely the Hermitian unitals in PG(2,16), PG(2,25) and PG(2,49).
