Review text

Let \(\mathrm{PG}(n,q)\) be the projective space of dimension \(n\) over the field \(\mathbb{F}_q\). A \(t\)-spread in \(\mathrm{PG}(n,q)\) is a set of distinct \(t\)-dimensional subspaces which partition the points of \(\mathrm{PG}(n,q)\). A partial \(t\)-parallelism is a set of mutually disjoint \(t\)-spreads. A \(t\)-parallelism is a partition of the set of \(t\)-dimensional subspaces by \(t\)-spreads. A parallelism in \(\mathrm{PG}(n,q)\) is point-transitive if it has an automorphism group which is transitive on the points. A deficiency one \(t\)-parallelism is a partial \(t\)-parallelism with one \(t\)-spread less than the \(t\)-parallelism. In this paper, the authors investigate parallelisms in \(\mathrm{PG}(3,4)\). In this case, both point-transitive parallelisms and transitive deficiency one parallelisms must have automorphisms of order 5. The authors find all the 32,048 nonisomorphic parallelisms with automorphisms of order 5 and classify them by the orders of their automorphism groups and by the types of their spreads. In particular, no regular parallelism exists and no parallelism with automorphism of order 5 without fixed points is point-transitive.
