    Notes: Abstract We define Buekenhout unitals in derivable translation planes of dimension 2 over their kernel and provide a characterization of these unitals. We use this result to improve the characterization of classical unitals given by Lefèvre-Percsy [13] and Faina and Korchmáros [7].

    Notes: Abstract The unitals in the Hall plane are studied by deriving PG(2,q 2)and observing the effect on the unitals of PG(2,q 2).The number of Buekenhout and Buekenhout-Metz unitals in the Hall plane is determined. As a corollary we show that the classical unital is not embeddble in the Hall plane as a Buekenhout unital and that the Buekenhout unitals of H(q 2)are not embeddable as Buekenhout unitals in the Desarguesian plane. Finally, we generalize this technique to other translation planes.

    Notes: Abstract We show that if U is a Buekenhout-Metz unital (with respect to a point P) in any translation plane of order q 2 with kernel containing GF(q), then U has an associated 2-(q2,q+1,q) design which is the point-residual of an inversive plane, generalizing results of Wilbrink, Baker and Ebert. Further, our proof gives a natural, geometric isomorphism between the resulting inversive plane and the (egglike) inversive plane arising from the ovoid involved in the construction of the Buekenhout-Metz unital. We apply our results to investigate some parallel classes and partitions of the set of blocks of any Buekenhout-Metz unital.

    Notes: Abstract We prove that a parabolic unitalU in a translation plane π of orderq 2 with kernel containing GF(q) is a Buekenhout-Metz unital if and only if certain Baer subplanes containing the translation line of π meetU in 1 moduloq points. As a corollary we show that a unital 16-03 in PG(2,q 2) is classical if and only if it meets each Baer subplane of PG(2,q 2) in 1 moduloq points.
