A Characterization of Truncated D n -Buildings as Flag-Transitive PG.PG*-Geometries
We consider flag-transitive L.L*-geometries where the residues of the planes are finite non-degenerate projective spaces of dimension at least 3 and the residues of the points are their duals. We prove that every...
