Blocking sets of Rédei type in projective Hjelmslev planes

In this paper, we introduce Rédei type blocking sets in projective Hjelmslev planes over finite chain rings. We construct, in Hjelmslev planes over chain rings of nilpotency index 2 that contain the residue field as a proper subring, the Baer subplanes associated with this subring as Rédei type blocking sets. Two further examples of Rédei type blocking sets are given for planes over Galois rings generalizing familiar constructions in projective planes over finite fields.
