Abstract

The following result concerning completely regular ovals is proved: Let Π be a projective plane of even order and let 𝒪 be a completely regular oval with nucleus N. Then Π is (N,N)-transitive. Combining this result with previous results [A. Maschietti, Symplectic translation planes and line ovals. Adv. Geom.3 (2003), 123–143. MR1967995 (2004c:51008) Zbl 1030.51002] one obtains: A projective plane of even order admits a completely regular oval if and only if the plane is dual to a symplectic translation plane.
