Title
There are exactly five biplanes with k=11
Abstract
A biplane is a 2-(k(k-1)/2 + 1, k, 2) symmetric design. Only six-teen nontrivial biplanes are known: there are exactly nine biplanes with k < 11, at least five biplanes with k = 11, and at least two bi-planes with k = 13.It is here shown by exhaustive computer search that the list of five known biplanes with k = 11 is complete. This result further implies that there exists no 3-(57, 12, 2) design, no 112<SUB>11 sym-metric configuration, and no (324, 57, 0, 12) strongly regular graph. The five biplanes have 16 residual designs, which by the Hall-Connor theorem constitute a complete classification of the 2-(45, 9, 2) designs.
