A characterization of generalized Hall planes
Norman Lloyd Johnson · Bulletin of the Australian Mathematical Society · 1972
We prove that a translation plane π of odd order is a generalized Hall plane if and only if π is derived from a translation plane of semi-translation class 1–3a. Also, a derivable translation plane of even order and class 1–3a derives a generalized Hall plane. We also show that the generalized Hall planes of Kirkpatrick form a subclass of the class of planes derived from the Dickson semifield planes.
