## Abstract We have classified by computer the projectively distinct complete (**__k__**, **3**)‐arcs in **PG**(**2**, **__q__**), **__q__**≤**13**. The algorithm used is an application of isomorph‐free backtracking using canonical augmentation, an adaptation of our earlier algorithms for the gener

✦ Synopsis
In 1955, Hall and Paige conjectured that any "nite group with a noncyclic Sylow 2-subgroup admits complete mappings. For the groups G¸(2, q), S¸(2, q), PS¸(2, q), and PG¸(2, q) this conjecture has been proved except for S¸(2, q), q odd. We prove that S¸(2, q), q,1 modulo 4 admits complete mappings.

The existence of a (q, k, 1) difference family in GF(q) has been completely solved for k = 3. For k = 4, 5 partial results have been given by Bose, Wilson, and Buratti. In this article, we continue the investigation and show that the necessary condition for the existence of a (q, k, 1) difference fa
Stinson introduced authentication perpendicular arrays APA λ (t, k, v), as a special kind of perpendicular arrays, to construct authentication and secrecy codes. Ge and Zhu introduced APAV(q, k) to study APA1(2, k, v) for k = 5, 7. In this article, we use a theorem on character sums to show that for
