We study parallelisms on Veronese spaces associated with affine spaces, determine hyperplanes in Veronese spaces associated with projective spaces, and analyse the geometry of parallelisms determined by these hyperplanes.
We propose a new approach to studies on partial Steiner triple systems consisting in determining complete graphs contained in them. We establish the structure which complete graphs yield in a minimal PSTS that contains them. As a by-product we introduce the notion of a binomial PSTS as a configuration with parameters of a minimal PSTS with a complete subgraph. A representation of binomial PSTS with at least a given number of its maximal complete subgraphs is given in terms of systems of perspectives. Finally, we prove that for each admissible integer there is a binomial PSTS with this number of maximal complete subgraphs.
We propose a generalization of the classical point-line Cremona-Richmond configuration to a configuration of points and more dimensional subspaces of a projective space, and present them as geometric realizations of some interesting abstract incidence structures.
The class of $\left(\binom{n+1}{2}_{n-1} \binom{n+1}{3}_3\right)$-configurations which contain at least $n-2$ $K_n$-graphs coincides with the class of so called systems of triangle perspectives i.e. of configurations which contain a bundle of $n-2$ Pasch configurations with a common line. For $n=5$ the class consists of all binomial partial Steiner triple systems on $15$ points, that contain at least three $K_5$-graphs. In this case a complete classification of respective configurations is given and their automorphisms are determined.
The realizability of countable Cox configurations on Miquelian planes is proved. A simple way to determine the automorphisms of the Cox configurations is presented.
We construct Grassmann spaces associated with the incidence geometry of regular and tangential subspaces of a symplectic copolar space, show that the underlying metric projective space can be recovered in terms of the corresponding adjacencies on so distinguished family of k-subspaces (geometrical dimension of the space being not 2k+1), and thus we prove that bijections which preserve the adjacency are determined by automorphisms of the underlying space.
