Andrè flat flocks


Abstract


It is shown that the every plane of the class of Andrè planes of order q<sup>n</sup> corresponds to a flat flock of a Segre variety Sn-1,n-1 over GF(q) if and only if n is divisible by q-1. In addition, there are large numbers of generalized Andrè planes onstructed that produce flat flocks.
