Abstract

The article presents the definition of finite geometries. At the end of the nineteenth century, it notes that finite geometries appear as a synthesis of combinatorics, group-theoretic ideas, and statistical data-processing methodology. It is also usually considered in terms of incidence structures or general combinatorial theory. The author mentions that geometric and combinatorial tools has proved to be fruitful for the development of geometrical number theory and graph theory.
