Incidence Geometry Atlas

This page provides an atlas for flag transitive, residually connected, thin geometries admitting trialities and no dualities. For every group $G$ in the category, we provide the number of geometries, the size of the residues, the time it took to run it on a computer. with specs X and for which groups of the category does the algorithm produce nothing. Group names are clickable and will link to a copy and pastable magma file which contains the triple of involutions and the geometries, ready to be used. A README on how to use and interpret these files is available here .

Here is a list of the families:

  1. Sporadic simple groups of order $\leq 10^{10}$ and others.
  2. Linear groups, including $\mathrm{PGL}(2,q)$ and $\mathrm{PSL}(2,q)$ for $1 \leq q \leq 500$ a power of a prime.
  3. The alternating and symmetric groups $\mathrm{A}_n$ and $\mathrm{S}_n$ for $1 \leq n \leq 16$.
  4. Marston Conder's list of orientable hypermaps of genus $1$ to $101$.
  5. Misc based on litterature.
  6. Cite as: “The full classification datasets are available at https://rdelaby.github.io/atlas.html.”

For $ 1 \leq n \leq 9$, there are no geometries admitting $\mathrm{A}_n$ or $\mathrm{S}_n$ as automorphism group.

Hypermaps (orientable hypermaps with genus $1 \leq g \leq 101$, non orientable hypermaps with genus $2 \leq g \leq 202$).

The hypermaps data got extracted from Marston Conder's website. The non-orientable regular hypermaps of genus $2 \leq g \leq 202$ do not produce any geometries. The geometry over the group $C_4^3.C_2^3$ is the smallest known one with only $3 \times 32 = 96$ elements.
