A Note on Regular Near Polygons

Let be a regular near polygon of order (s,t) with s>1 and t3. Let d be the diameter of , and let r:= max{i(c_i,a_i,b_i)=(c₁,a₁,b₁)}. In this note we prove several inequalities for . In particular, we show that s is bounded from above by function in t if We also consider regular near polygons of order (s,3).This work was partly supported by the Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research (No 14740072), the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology, JapanThis work was partly done when the author was at the Com²MaC center at the Pohang University of Science and Technology.
