Hemisystems of small flock generalized quadrangles

Abstract: In this paper, we describe a complete computer classification of the hemisystems in the two known flock generalized quadrangles of order $(5^2,5)$ and give numerous further examples of hemisystems in all the known flock generalized quadrangles of order $(s^2,s)$ for $s \le 11$. By analysing the computational data, we identify two possible new infinite families of hemisystems in the classical generalized quadrangle $H(3,q^2)$.
