Recently there has been renewed interest in a class of geometries introduced by Tits many years ago. Part of this interest stems from Tits' paper [-6] which characterizes buildings as the simply connected geometries with Coxeter diagram in which all residues of type C 3 and H 3 are buildings. Defin
Characterizations of automorphisms, or of mappings which are close to automorphisms L of three special ΓΏnite geometries are presented. These geometries are ΓΏnite analogues of Lorentz-Minkowski geometry, of de Sitter's world, and of Einstein's cylinder universe.
Some considerations suggest the conjecture that a finite Cn-geometry F with thick lines and following property (LL) is a polar space: (LL) any two points are incident with at most one line. In this paper we prove that a such geometry F is either a polar space or 'flat' extending a result of [4] to
