The completeness conjecture for Constructions A, B and C

Let PG(2,q)PG(2,q) be the projective plane of order qq. Constructions A, B, and C produce families of complete kk-arcs in the size regions stated in the paper's theorem: Construction A for prime qq, Construction B for prime powers q≢3(mod4)q\not\equiv3\pmod 4, and Construction C for prime powers q3(mod4)q\equiv3\pmod4, with the corresponding bounds on kk and the listed verified exceptional ranges. Completeness conjecture for Constructions A, B and C. The assertions of that theorem hold also for every q>1367q>1367. This would extend the experimentally verified completeness of the three construction families beyond the ranges proved in the paper.
