Constructing new geometries: a generalized approach to halving for hypertopes (2405.19050v1)
Published 29 May 2024 in math.CO and math.GR
Abstract: Given a residually connected incidence geometry $\Gamma$ that satisfies two conditions, denoted $(B_1)$ and $(B_2)$, we construct a new geometry $H(\Gamma)$ with properties similar to those of $\Gamma$. This new geometry $H(\Gamma)$ is inspired by a construction of Percsy, Percsy and Leemans [1]. We show how $H(\Gamma)$ relates to the classical halving operation on polytopes, allowing us to generalize the halving operation to a broader class of geometries, that we call non-degenerate leaf hypertopes. Finally, we apply this generalization to cubic toroids in order to generate new examples of regular hypertopes.
