Summary

Planar spaces with planes isomorphic to PG(d, Q) or to AG(d, Q), with d ⩾3, are presented, and a natural generalization of π-spaces, namely the (σ, n)-spaces, is also studied. For this purpose, we use the language of (n, d)-systems, which was introduced and studied by G. Tallini [13], and for which we give a brief sketch of the theory.
