AbstractThe classical 2-dimensional Laguerre plane is obtained as the geometry of non-trivial plane sections of a cylinder in R3 with a circle in R2 as base. Points and lines in R3 define subsets of the circle set of this geometry via the affine non-vertical planes that contain them. Furthemore, vertical lines and planes define partitions of the circle set via the points and affine non-vertical lines, respectively, contained in them.We investigate abstract counterparts of such sets of circles and partitions in arbitrary 2-dimensional Laguerre planes. We also prove a number of related results for generalized quadrangles associated with 2-dimensional Laguerre planes.
