Partial geometry
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
An incidence structure consists of points , lines , and flags where a point is said to be incident with a line if . It is a (finite) partial geometry if there are integers such that:
- For any pair of distinct points and , there is at most one line incident with both of them.
- Each line is incident with points.
- Each point is incident with lines.
- If a point and a line are not incident, there are exactly pairs , such that is incident with and is incident with .
A partial geometry with these parameters is denoted by .
