Abstract

In [9] S. Yoshiara determines possible automorphism group of doubly transitive dimensional dual hyperovals. He shows that a doubly transitive dual hyperoval D is either isomorphic to the Mathieu dual hyperoval or the dual hyperoval is defined over 𝔽2, and if the hyperoval has rank n, the automorphism group has the form ES, with an elementary abelian group E of order 2n and S a subgroup of GL(n,2) acting transitively on the nontrivial elements of E. Moreover Yoshiara describes the possible candidates for S. In this paper we assume that S is non-solvable and show that then the dimensional dual hyperoval is a bilinear quotient of a Hyubrechts dual hyperoval.
