  • Abstract
    We investigate the multiplicative loops of finite semifields. We show that the group generated by the left and right multiplication maps contains the special linear group. This result solves a BCC18 problem of A. Drلpal. Moreover, we study the question of whether the big Mathieu groups can occur as multiplication groups of loops.
