Along with the author's other three books (Subplane Covered Nets, Foundations of Translation Planes, Handbook of Finite Translation Planes), this text forms a solid, comprehensive account of the complete theory of the geometries that are connected with translation planes in intricate ways. It covers all known finite and infinite paralle

Offers a comprehensive listing of the various translation planes derived from a fundamental construction technique, an explanation of the classes of translation planes using both descriptions and construction methods, and sketches of the major relevant theorems.

Finite geometry is an important, wide-ranging research area in mathematics with strong connections to algebra and combinatorics. This book introduces parallelisms and spreads. It covers topics such as partial spreads, spreadsets, quasifields, collineations, automorphisms and autotopisms.
