Abstract

top
The aim of the paper is to give an effective formula for the calculation of the probability that a random subset of an affine geometry AG(r-1,q) has rank r. Tables for the probabilities are given for small ranks. The expected time to the first moment at which a random subset of an affine geometry achieves the rank r is derived.
