Abstract

New upper bounds on the smallest size of a complete arc in the plane PG(2, q) are obtained. New upper bounds on the smallest size of the complete cap in the space PG(n, q) are given for n = 3 and 25 ≤ q ≤ 97, q odd; n = 4 and q = 7, 8, 11, 13, 17; n = 5 and q = 5, 7, 8, 9; n = 6 and q = 4, 8. The bounds are obtained by computer search for new small complete arcs and caps. New upper bounds on the largest size of a complete cap in PG(n, q) are given. Many new sizes of complete arcs and caps are obtained.
