## Abstract A tangency set of PG __(d,q)__ is a set __Q__ of points with the property that every point __P__ of __Q__ lies on a hyperplane that meets __Q__ only in __P__. It is known that a tangency set of PG __(3,q)__ has at most $q^2+1$ points with equality only if it is an ovoid. We show that a

Inaction A prrrallelism of S3 = PG(3., 4) is a set 9 of 4\*+ 4 + 1 spreads such that, if $I and sz are two distinct spreads of 9, then & and s2 do not have a common line. If all spreads of 9 are regular we say that g is a regular parallelism of SJ. In [3] Bruck studied a amstruction of a projective

The automorphism group of the set of 12 points associated with an apolar system of conics is determined. A complete (q -&arc for q = 13 can be obtained as a special case. The orbits of its automorphism group are also described. 0 I Y Y ~ John Wile?. & Sons, h e .

## Abstract Some new families of small complete caps in __PG__(__N, q__), __q__ even, are described. By using inductive arguments, the problem of the construction of small complete caps in projective spaces of arbitrary dimensions is reduced to the same problem in the plane. The caps constructed in

## Abstract In a previous paper 1, all point sets of minimum size in __PG__(2,__q__), blocking all external lines to a given irreducible conic ${\cal C}$, have been determined for every odd __q__. Here we obtain a similar classification for those point sets of minimum size, which meet every externa
