Parallelism
EnProblems involving the idea of parallelism occur in finite geometry and in graph theory. This article addresses the question of constructing parallelisms with some degree of "symmetry". In particular, can we say anything on parallelisms admitting an automorphism group acting doubly transitively on "parallel classes"

On 2-transitive 3-nets
A 3-net is said to be 2-transitive if it admits a group of direction-preserving automorphisms fixing one of the transversal lines and acting 2-transitively on its points. We classify the 2-transitive finite 3-nets which do not admit a proper 2-transitive 3-subnet, except, possibly for a subnet of order 2. The result is then extended under a weaker assumption

Every equidistant linear code is a sequence of dual Hamming codes
If an equidistant linear code exists, then its parameters must satisfy certain relations determined by the Plotkin bound. For each set of possible parameters there actually exists an equidistant linear code with these parameters: its generator matrix is a sequence of parity check matrices of Hamming codes. The generator matrix of every equidistant linear code can be brought to this form by suitably rearranging its columns
Point-primitive inversive planes of odd order
The following Theorem is proved. If I is a finite inversive plane of odd order n and G is an automorphism group of I acting primitively on its points, then I is miquelian; furthermore, we have PSL(2,n^2) <= G <= PGammaL(2,n^2) and G is 2-transitive on the points of I unless n=3 and A_5 <= G <= A_5 * C_
