Symmetric designs and four dimensional projective special unitary groups

Abstract

In this article, we study symmetric (v,k,λ)(v, k, \lambda) designs admitting a flag-transitive and point-primitive automorphism group GG whose socle is PSU4(q)PSU_{4}(q). We prove that there exist eight non-isomorphic such designs for which λ{3,6,18}\lambda\in\{3,6,18\} and GG is either PSU4(2)PSU_{4}(2), or PSU4(2):2PSU_{4}(2):2.
