Testing chirality on hypertopes

Abstract

In this paper we give group-theoretical conditions on the maximal parabolic subgroups of a coset geometry for it to be a chiral hypertope, bypassing the need to construct the incidence graph of the coset geometry to determine whether or not it is a chiral hypertope. This result permits to study much larger coset geometries with computers and gives hope on proving theoretical results about coset geometries that are chiral hypertopes.
