New constructions of two slim dense near hexagons

Abstract

We provide a geometrical construction of the slim dense near hexagon with parameters (s,t,t2)=(2,5,{1,2})(s,t,t_{2})=(2,5,\{1,2\}). Using this construction, we construct the rank 3 symplectic dual polar space DSp(6,2)DSp(6,2) which is the slim dense near hexagon with parameters (s,t,t2)=(2,6,2)(s,t,t_{2})=(2,6,2). Both the near hexagons are constructed from two copies of a generalized quadrangle with parameters (2,2).
