Block transitive Steiner systems with more than one point orbit
, Journal of Combinatorial Designs, Vol: 12, Pages: 459-465, ISSN: 1063-8539For all 'reasonable' finite t; k, and s, we construct a t-(א0,k, 1) design and a group of automorphisms which is transitive on blocks and has s orbits on points. In particular, there is a 2-(א0, 4, 1) design with a block-transitive group of automorphisms having two point orbits. This answers a question of P. J. Cameron and C. E. Praeger. The construction is presented in a purely combinatorial way, but is a by-product of a new way of looking at a model-theoretic construction of E. Hrushovski. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The maximal subgroups of positive dimension in exceptional algebraic groups
, MEM AM MATH SOC, Vol: 169, Pages: 1-227, ISSN: 0065-9266In this paper we complete the determination of the maximal subgroups of positive dimension in simple algebraic groups of exceptional type over algebraically closed fields. This follows work of Dynkin, who solved the problem in characteristic zero, and Seitz who did likewise over fields whose characteristic is not too small.A number of consequences are obtained. It follows from the main theorem that a simple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field has only finitely many conjugacy classes of maximal subgroups of positive dimension. It also follows that the maximal subgroups of sufficiently large order in finite exceptional groups of Lie type are known.
