Transitive PSL(2,11)-invariant k-arcs in PG(4,q)
Abstract
A \textit{k}-arc in the projective space is a set of projective points such that no subcollection of points is contained in a hyperplane. In this paper, we construct new -arcs and -arcs in that do not arise from rational or elliptic curves. We introduce computational methods that, when given a set of projective points in the projective space of dimension over an algebraic number field , determines a complete list of primes for which the reduction modulo of to the projective space may fail to be a -arc. Using these methods, we prove that there are infinitely many primes such that contains a -invariant -arc, where is given in one of its natural irreducible representations as a subgroup of . Similarly, we show that there exist -invariant -arcs in and -invariant -arcs in for infinitely many primes .
