This conference extends the series of previous meetings which took place at the Isle of Thorns (2000), in Oberwolfach (2001), and in Irsee ( 2003 , 2006 , 2011 and 2014 ). As before, the conference topics are:

Combinatorial structures in Galois geometries; Finite Incidence Geometry; Algebraic curves and varieties over finite fields; Geometric and algebraic coding theory; Finite groups and geometries; Algebraic design theory.

Main speakers include:

John Bamberg (Univeristy of Western Australia, Australia)
Dieter Jungnickel (Augsburg University, Germany)
Karen Meagher (University of Regina, Canada)
Olga Polverino (Seconda Università degli Studi di Napoli, Italy)
Joachim Rosenthal (University of Zurich, Switzerland)
