Generalized Polygons is the first book to cover, in a coherent manner, the theory of polygons from scratch. In particular, it fills elementary gaps in the literature and gives an up-to-date account of current research in this area, including most proofs, which are often unified and streamlined in comparison to the versions generally known. Generalized Polygons will be welcomed both by the student seeking an introduction to the subject as well as the researcher who will value the work as a reference. In particular, it will be of great value for specialists working in the field of generalized...

Haben die Prozesse der Evolution Einfluss auf unser Rechtssystem? Unterliegen rechtlich-soziales Handeln und Rechtsnormen den Mechanismen der Evolution? Die Arbeit beleuchtet das Spannungsfeld von Evolution und Recht am Beispiel des Gleichheitssatzes. Die Entwicklung des Prinzips Gleichbehandlung wird im Zeichen biogenetischer und gesellschaftlicher Verhaltenstendenzen untersucht und auf das Phanomen der Koevolution hin uberpruft."

This book is intended to be an introduction to the fascinating theory ofgeneralized polygons for both the graduate student and the specialized researcher in the field. It gathers together a lot of basic properties (some of which are usually referred to in research papers as belonging to folklore) and very recent and sometimes deep results. I have chosen a fairly strict geometrical approach, which requires some knowledge of basic projective geometry. Yet, it enables one to prove some typically group-theoretical results such as the determination of the automorphism groups of certain Moufang...

Translation generalized quadrangles play a key role in the theory of generalized quadrangles, comparable to the role of translation planes in the theory of projective and affine planes. The notion of translation generalized quadrangle is a local analog of the more global "Moufang Condition," a topic of great interest, also due to the classification of all Moufang polygons. Attention is thus paid to recent results in that direction, but also many of the most important results in the general theory of generalized quadrangles that appeared since 1984 are treated. Translation Generalized...
