The Flag-Transitive C3-Geometries of Finite Order
نویسنده
چکیده
It is shown that a flag-transitive C3-geometry of finite order (x, y) with x > 2 is either a finite building of type (73 (and hence the classical polar space for a 6-dimensional symplectic space, a 6-dimensional orthogonal space of plus type, a 6or 7-dimensional hermidan space, a 7-dimensional orthogonal space, or an 8-dimensional orthogonal space of minus type) or the sporadic A7 -geometry with 7 points.

This paper is a continuation of Kantor (4, 6] and Ronan [10]. We will construct finite and infinite 'geometries' admitting flag-transitive groups and having buildings as universal covers. The first building is that of {1+ (6, (Ji2); the remaining ones are new and strange. As in the aforementioned papers, our motivation is the search for finite geometries that strongly resemble buildings, and fo...
متن کاملSome Exceptional 2-Adic Buildings
Tits [ 191 has initiated the study of geometries having properties strongly resembling those of buildings (compare [6]). His main result is that, in general, such a geometry is the image of a building under a suitable type of morphism. These geometries that are almost buildings were called GABS in [lo], and finite examples were described in [2, 8, 10, 15, 161 that are not buildings but have hig...
متن کاملAffine extensions of the petersen graph and 2-arc-transitive graphs of girth 5
are considered in this paper. Examples of finite Qn-geometries are constructed for any n i> 2. In particular, we obtain new examples of finite 2-arc-transitive graphs of girth 5, containing Petersen subgraphs (cf. [4], [5] for an enquiry into this class of graphs). Furthermore, we give a complete classification of Q2-geometries using coset enumeration. In particular, we show that they are all f...
متن کامل∗ k - geometries Antonio Pasini 1
The classification of finite flag-transitive linear spaces, obtained by Buekenhout, Delandtsheer, Doyen, Kleidman, Liebeck and Saxl [20] at the end of the eighties, gave new impulse to the program of classifying various classes of locally finite flag-transitive geometries belonging to diagrams obtained from a Coxeter diagram by putting a label L or L∗ on some (possibly, all) of the single-bond ...
متن کاملAlmost simple groups with Socle $G_2(q)$ acting on finite linear spaces
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.
