- Abstract
- We generalize the well-known Haemers-Roos inequality for generalized hexagons of order (s, t) to arbitrary near hexagons S with an order. The proof is based on the fact that a certain matrix associated with S is idempotent. The fact that this matrix is idempotent has some consequences for tetrahedrally closed line systems in Euclidean spaces. One of the early theorems relating these line systems with near hexagons is known to contain an essential error. We fix this gap here in the special case for geometries having an order.
