Abstract

The Fischer group Fi 22 acts as a rank 3 group of automorphisms of a symmetric 2-(14080,1444,148) design. This design does not have a doubly transitive automorphism group, since there is a partial linear space with lines of size 4 defined combinatorially from the design and preserved by its automorphism group. We investigate this geometry and determine the structure of various subspaces of it.
