On sharply transitive sets in \(\mathrm{PG}(2,g)\). (Q1022870)

By a result of \textit{G. Korchmáros} [Atti Semin. Mat. Fis. Univ. Modena 27, 89--105 (1978; Zbl 0416.51004)] it is known that sharply transitive hyperovals in \(\text{PG}(2,q)\) exist only for \(q=2,4,16.\) In the nice paper under review the authors construct sharply transitive complete \(6(\sqrt{q}-1)\)-arcs, when \(q=4^{2h+1}\) for \(1 \leq h \leq 4\). It appears that these are the smallest known complete arcs in \(\text{PG}(2,4^7)\) and in \(\text{PG}(2,4^9)\). Moreover, for \(h=1\) the resulting \(42\)-arc seems to provide a new value in the spectrum of known sizes for complete arcs in \(\text{PG}(2,4^3)\). It should be noted that the sharply transitive arcs constructed belong to an infinite family, but the completeness of these arcs is not known for \(h > 4\). Finally, the last section of the paper discusses linear codes arising from sharply transitive sets, and a table is presented of certain resulting codes which attain the Griesmer bound.
