Abstract
For with a prime such that or the desarguesian projective plane of order has a unique conjugacy class of projectivity groups isomorphic to the alternating group of degree 6. For a projectivity group of , we investigate the geometric properties of the (unique) -orbit of size 90 such that the 1-point stabilizer of in is a cyclic group of order 4. Here lies either in or in according as 3 is a square or a non-square element in . We show that if and , then is a 90-arc, which turns out to be complete for Interestingly, is the smallest known complete arc in and in Computations are carried out by MAGMA.
