This paper is devoted to the classification of flag-transitive 2- designs. We show that apart from two known symmetric 2- designs, every flag-transitive subgroup G of the automorphism group of a nontrivial 2- design is primitive of affine or almost simple type. Moreover, we classify the 2- designs admitting a flag transitive almost simple group G with socle for some . Alongside this analysis we give a construction for a flag-transitive 2- design from a given flag-transitive 2- design which induces a 2-transitive action on a line. Taking the design of points and lines of the projective space as input to this construction yields a G-flag-transitive 2- design where G has socle and . Apart from these designs, our classification yields exactly one other example, namely the complement of the Fano plane.

关于标志传递2-(v,k,2)设计
本文致力于标志传递2-的分类设计。我们表明,除了两个已知的对称2-设计中,一个非平凡2-自同构群的每个标志传递子群G设计是原始的仿射或几乎简单的类型。此外,我们将2-设计允许带有底的标志传递近乎简单的G组 对于一些 。除此分析外,我们还给出了标记可传递2的构造 从给定的标记传递2进行设计设计可以在线路上引起2个传递动作。进行投影空间的点和线的设计作为此构造的输入会产生G标志传递2G有鞋底的设计 和 。除了这些设计之外,我们的分类还提供了另一个示例,即Fano平面的补码。
