    Finite geometries: pure mathematics close to applications
    (Oberwolfach : Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach gGmbH, 2021) Storme, Leo
    The research field of finite geometries investigates structures with a finite number of objects. Classical examples include vector spaces, projective spaces, and affine spaces over finite fields. Although many of these structures are studied for their geometrical importance, they are also of great interest in other, more applied domains of mathematics. In this snapshot, finite vector spaces are introduced. We discuss the geometrical concept of partial t-spreads together with its implications for the “packing problem” and a recent application in the existence of “cooling codes”.
