The Australian Research Data Commons (ARDC) invites you to participate in a short survey about your
interaction with the ARDC and use of our national research infrastructure and services. The survey will take
approximately 5 minutes and is anonymous. It’s open to anyone who uses our digital research infrastructure
services including Reasearch Link Australia.
We will use the information you provide to improve the national research infrastructure and services we
deliver and to report on user satisfaction to the Australian Government’s National Collaborative Research
Infrastructure Strategy (NCRIS) program.
Please take a few minutes to provide your input. The survey closes COB Friday 29 May 2026.

Finite permutation groups and flag-transitive incidence structures. Mathematics is the enabling discipline for all the sciences and so a strong mathematical research community in Australia provides the foundations for future discoveries in science and technology. By developing new theory for permutation groups, producing a new paradigm for the study of Buekenhout geometries and classifying certain families of flag-transitive incidence structures, we will enhance Australia's leading position in P ....Finite permutation groups and flag-transitive incidence structures. Mathematics is the enabling discipline for all the sciences and so a strong mathematical research community in Australia provides the foundations for future discoveries in science and technology. By developing new theory for permutation groups, producing a new paradigm for the study of Buekenhout geometries and classifying certain families of flag-transitive incidence structures, we will enhance Australia's leading position in Permutation Group Theory, Algebraic Graph Theory and Finite Geometry. This will attract international and Australian postgraduate students and visitors, and strengthen the research activities of Australia by enhancing the collaboration between UWA and leading international universities.Read moreRead less
Applications of Group Theory to Finite Geometry. Group theory and geometry have influenced one another for over a century. The most important structures in geometry are the symmetric ones and the most important groups act on geometries. Recent developments in finite geometry, although informed by symmetry, have used a minimum of group theory. The project aims to redress this, by applying results from a broad range of finite group theory to the presently hot topics in finite geometry. Our aim is ....Applications of Group Theory to Finite Geometry. Group theory and geometry have influenced one another for over a century. The most important structures in geometry are the symmetric ones and the most important groups act on geometries. Recent developments in finite geometry, although informed by symmetry, have used a minimum of group theory. The project aims to redress this, by applying results from a broad range of finite group theory to the presently hot topics in finite geometry. Our aim is to achieve a paradigm shift, by finding substantively different structures than those presently known. Should it succeed, much activity in geometry would follow, seeking geometric interpretation of these group theoretic results. Our focus is necessitated by the lack of a result characterising the underlying groups of symmetric generalised quadrangles.Read moreRead less
Permutation groups and their interplay with symmetry in finite geometry and graph theory. A strong mathematical community in Australia provides the foundations for future discoveries in technology, science and business. The use of group theory to characterise symmetric generalised quadrangles, partial quadrangles, and strongly regular graphs, and the construction of new examples of such objects, will enhance Australia's leading position in Group Theory, Algebraic Graph Theory and Finite Geometry ....Permutation groups and their interplay with symmetry in finite geometry and graph theory. A strong mathematical community in Australia provides the foundations for future discoveries in technology, science and business. The use of group theory to characterise symmetric generalised quadrangles, partial quadrangles, and strongly regular graphs, and the construction of new examples of such objects, will enhance Australia's leading position in Group Theory, Algebraic Graph Theory and Finite Geometry. This project will also strengthen the collaboration between Australian, Belgian and Italian Universities and support young researchers, developing expertise in a world-leading research group, to drive Australia's future in mathematics.Read moreRead less
