In 1959, Segre constructed a complete (3q+2)-cap in PG(3, q), q even. This showed that the size of the smallest complete k-cap in PG(3, q), q even, is almost equal to the trivial lower bound which is of order -2q. Generalizing the construction of Segre, complete (q n +3(q n&1 + } } } +q)+2)-caps in

In this paper we construct a class of k-arcs in PG(2, q), q = p~, h > 1, p Β’ 3 and prove its completeness for h large enough. The main result states that this class contains complete k-arcs with k ~< 2. q9/lo (10 divides h and q ~> qo). Such complete k-arcs are the unique known complete k-arcs with
A very difficult problem for complete caps in PG(r,q) is to determine their minimum size. The results on this topic are still scarce and in this paper we survey the best results now known. Furthermore, we construct new interesting sporadic examples of complete caps in PG(3, q) and in PG(4, q) such t
