Abstract

 After the classification of the flag-transitive linear spaces, the attention has been turned to line-transitive linear spaces. In this article, we present a
partial classification of the finite linear spaces $\mathcal S$ on
which an almost simple group $G$ with the socle $G_2(q)$ acts
line-transitively.
