Some Extensions and Embeddings of Near Polygons

HANS CUYPERS

چکیده

Let (P, L, *) be a near polygon having 8 + 1 points per line, s > 1, and suppose k is a field. Let Vk be the k-vector space with basis {vp | p € P}. Then the subspace generated by the vectors v1 = Lp*l vp, where l 6 L, has codimension at least 2 in Vk. This observation is used in two ways. First we derive the existence of certain diagram geometries with flag transitive automorphism group, and secondly, we show that any finite near polygon with 3 points per line can be embedded in an affine GF(3)-space.

Isometric embeddings between the near polygons H n and G n

Let n ∈ N \ {0, 1, 2}. We prove that there exists up to equivalence one and up to isomorphism (n + 1)(2n + 1) isometric embeddings of the near 2n-gon Hn into the near 2n-gon Gn.

Combinatorial Construction of Some Near Polygons

We give a construction which takes a rank two incidence geometry with three points on a line and returns a geometry of the same type, i.e., with three points on a line. It is also demonstrated that embeddings of the original geometry can be extended to the new geometry. It is shown that the family of dual polar spaces of type Sp(2n, 2) arise recursively from the construction starting with the g...

Isometric embeddings of the near polygons Hn and Gn into dual polar spaces

We prove that for every n ∈ N \ {0, 1} there exists up to isomorphism a unique isometric embedding of the near polygon Hn into the dual polar space DW (2n−1, 2) and a unique isometric embedding of the near polygon Gn into the dual polar space DH(2n− 1, 4).

Embeddings of small generalized polygons

In this paper we consider some finite generalized polygons, defined over a field with characteristic 2, that admit an embedding in a projective or affine space over a field with characteristic unequal to 2. In particular, we classify the (lax) embeddings of the unique generalized quadrangle H(3, 4) of order (4, 2). We also classify all (lax) embeddings of both the split Cayley hexagon H(2) and ...
