Abstract

We prove the longstanding conjecture that the 3-Moufang condition for generalized quadrangles is equivalent to the Moufang condition. We mention some other characterizations of Moufang quadrangles that follow from this result. We also provide a short proof of Tent's recent result that every half Moufang quadrangle is necessarily a Moufang quadrangle.
