✦ Synopsis


It is shown that there is a function g on the natural numbers such that a partial Steiner triple system U on u points can be embedded in a Steiner triple system V on v v v points, in such a way that all automorphisms of U can be extended to V, for every admissible v v v satisfying v v v > gðuÞ. We find exponential upper and lower bounds for g.
