Relationship To Spreads
Translation planes are related to spreads in finite projective spaces by the André/Bruck-Bose construction. A spread of is a set of q2 + 1 lines, with no two intersecting. Equivalently, it is a partition of the points of into lines.
Given a spread of, the André/Bruck-Bose construction1 produces a translation plane of order q2 as follows: Embed as a hyperplane of . Define an incidence structure with "points," the points of not on and "lines" the planes of meeting in a line of . Then is a translation affine plane of order q2. Let be the projective completion of .

Famous quotes containing the words relationship and/or spreads:
“Christianity as an organized religion has not always had a harmonious relationship with the family. Unlike Judaism, it kept almost no rituals that took place in private homes. The esteem that monasticism and priestly celibacy enjoyed implied a denigration of marriage and parenthood.”
—Beatrice Gottlieb, U.S. historian. The Family in the Western World from the Black Death to the Industrial Age, ch. 12, Oxford University Press (1993)
“Crimes increase as education, opportunity, and property decrease. Whatever spreads ignorance, poverty and, discontent causes crime.... Criminals have their own responsibility, their own share of guilt, but they are merely the hand.... Whoever interferes with equal rights and equal opportunities is in some ... real degree, responsible for the crimes committed in the community.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
