We recognize that the set of Veblen points of a Steiner triple system corresponds to the center of the Steiner loop. We investigate extensions of Steiner loops, focusing in particular on the case of Schreier extensions, which provide a powerful method for constructing Steiner triple systems containing Veblen points.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2024-06-18T17:02:47.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "05B07", "20N05", "51E10" ], "keywords": [ "extensions", "steiner loop", "triple systems containing veblen points", "steiner triple system corresponds", "steiner triple systems containing veblen" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
