Summary
Abstract
The ternary codes associated with the five known biplanes of order 9 were examined using the computer language Magma. The computations showed that each biplane is the only one to be found among the weight-11 vectors of its ternary code, and that none of the biplanes can be extended to a 3-(57,12,2) design. The residual designs of the biplanes, and designs associated with {12; 3}-arcs were also examined.
