Authors:
- First full discussion of flag-transitive Steiner designs
- At the interface of several disciplines, such as finite or incidence geometry, finite group theory, combinatorics, coding theory, and cryptography
- Presents in a sufficiently self-contained and unified manner the solutions of challenging mathematical problems which have been object of research for more than 40 years
- Fertile interplay of methods from finite group theory, incidence geometry, combinatorics, and number theory
- Contains a broad introduction with many illustrative examples; accessible to graduate students
- The author has been awarded a Heinz Maier-Leibnitz-Prize 2008 of the German Research Foundation (DFG) for his work on flag-transitive Steiner designs
- Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
Part of the book series: Frontiers in Mathematics (FM)
