- Abstract
- We consider unitals of order q with two points which are centers of translation groups of order q. The group G generated by these translations induces a Moufang set on the block joining the two points. We show that G is either SL ( 2 , F q ) (as in all classical unitals and also in some nonclassical examples), or PSL ( 2 , F q ), or a Suzuki, or a Ree group. Moreover, G is semiregular outside the special block.
