Abstract
-unitals are unitals of order admitting a regular action of on the complement of some block. They can be obtained from affine -unitals via parallelisms. We compute a sharp upper bound for automorphism groups of affine -unitals and show that exactly two parallelisms are fixed by all automorphisms. In -unitals obtained as closures of affine -unitals via those two parallelisms, we show that there is one block fixed under the full automorphism group.
