The parameters 2-(36,15,6) are the smallest parameters of symmetric designs for which a complete classification up to isomorphism is yet unknown. Bouyukliev, Fack and Winne classified all 2-$(36,15,6)$ designs that admit an automorphism of…

It is clear that the full automorphism group of the $(15,8,4)$-design of points and hyperplane complements of ${\rm PG}(3,2)$ is ${\rm GL}(4,2)$. Using methods of point-line geometries, we determine the full automorphism groups of the…

We classify the pairwise transitive 2-designs, that is, 2-designs such that a group of automorphisms is transitive on the following five sets of ordered pairs: point-pairs, incident point-block pairs, non-incident point-block pairs,…

In this paper we study the automorphism group of a possible symmetric $(81,16,3)$ design.

We establish the existence of simple designs with parameters $2$-$(55,10,4)$, $3$-$(20,5,4)$, $3$-$(21,7,30)$, $4$-$(15,5,2)$, $4$-$(16,8,45)$, $5$-$(16,7,10)$, and $5$-$(17,8,40)$, which have previously been unknown. For the corresponding…

The symmetric $2$-$(v,k,\lambda )$ designs, with $k>\lambda \left(\lambda-3 \right)/2$, admitting a flag-transitive, point-imprimitive automorphism group are completely classified: they are the known $2$-designs with parameters…

A design is called $t$-pyramidal when it has an automorphism group which fixes $t$ points and acts sharply transitively on the remaining points. We determine all symmetric $(2^k-1,2^{k-1},2^{k-2})$-designs which are $(2^{k-1}-1)$-pyramidal…

We determine all connected homogeneous Kobayashi-hyperbolic manifolds of dimension $n\ge 2$ whose holomorphic automorphism group has dimension $n^2-2$. This result complements an existing classification for automorphism group dimension…

In this article, we investigate symmetric 2-designs of prime order admitting a flag-transitive automorphism group G. Recently, the authors proved that the automorphism group G of this type of designs must be point-primitive, and is of…

The Two Higgs Doublet Model invariant under the gauge group SU(2)xU(1) is known to have six additional global discrete or continuous symmetries of its scalar sector. We have discovered regions of parameter space of the model which are basis…

In this article, we study symmetric $(v, k, \lambda)$ designs admitting a flag-transitive and point-primitive automorphism group $G$ whose socle is a projective special unitary group of dimension at most five. We, in particular, determine…

In this article, we study symmetric $(v, k, \lambda)$ designs admitting a flag-transitive and point-primitive automorphism group $G$ whose socle is $PSU_{4}(q)$. We prove that there exist eight non-isomorphic such designs for which…

We give a construction of a family of designs with a specified point-partition, and determine the subgroup of automorphisms leaving invariant the point-partition. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for a design in the family to…

Generically an almost complex structure has no symmetries at all, but there exist symmetric structures. In this paper we describe how to guarantee that the pseudogroup of local symmetries is small (finite-dimensional). It will be indicated…

In this paper we introduce a switching for 2-designs. We illustrate this method by applying it to some symmetric (64,28,12) designs. In that way we obtain six new symmetric (64,28,12) designs. Further, we show that this type of switching…

A complete classification of the flag-transitive point-imprimitive symmetric $2$-$(v,k,\lambda )$ designs with $v<100$ is provided. Apart from the known examples with $\lambda \leq 10$, the complementary design of $PG_{5}(2)$, and the…

We determine all connected homogeneous Kobayashi-hyperbolic manifolds of dimension $n\ge 2$ whose holomorphic automorphism group has dimension $n^2-3$. This result complements existing classifications for automorphism group dimension…

In this paper we analyze possible actions of an automorphism of order six on a $2$-$(70, 24, 8)$ design, and give a complete classification for the action of the cyclic automorphism group of order six $G= \langle \rho \rangle \cong Z_6…

Computational techniques for the construction of quasi-symmetric block designs are explored and applied to the case with $56$ points. One new $(56,16,18)$ and many new $(56,16,6)$ designs are discovered, and non-existence of $(56,12,9)$ and…

The largest prime p that can be the order of an automorphism of a 2-(35,17,8) design is p=17, and all 2-(35,17,8) designs with an automorphism of order 17 were classified by Tonchev. The symmetric 2-(35,17,8) designs with automorphisms of…
