A decomposition of the universal embedding space for the near polygon ℍn

Let H-n, n >= 1, be the near 2n-gon defined on the 1-factors of the complete graph on 2n + 2 vertices, and let e denote the absolutely universal embedding of Hn into PG(W), where W is a 1/n((2n +2)(n + 1))-dimensional vector space over the field F-2 with two elements. For every point z of H-n and every i is an element of N, let Delta(i) (z) denote the set of points of H-n at distance i from z. We show that for every pair {x, y} of mutually opposite points of H-n, W can be written as a direct sum W-0 circle plus W-1 ... circle plus W-n such that the following four properties hold for every i is an element of {0,..., n}: (1) = PG(W-i); (2) = PG(W-0 circle plus ... circle plus W-i); (3) = PG(Wn-i circle plus Wn-i+ 1 circle plus ... circle plus W-n); (4) dim(W-i) = |Delta(i) (x) boolean AND Delta(n-i)(y)| = ((n)(i)) - ((n)(i-1)).((n)(i+1))
