We generalize categories of spatial partitions in the sense of C\'ebron-Weber by introducing new base partitions. This allows us to construct additional examples of free orthogonal quantum groups but yields the same class of spatial…

''Positive geometries'' are a class of semi-algebraic domains which admit a unique ''canonical form'': a logarithmic form whose residues match the boundary structure of the domain. The study of such geometries is motivated by recent…
