This is the second volume in a two-volume set,which provides a complete self-contained proof of the classification of geometries associated with sporadic simple groups: Petersen and tilde geometries. This volume contains a study of the representations of the geometries under consideration in GF(2)-vector spaces as well as in some non-abelian groups.
The central part is the classification of the amalgam of maximal parabolics,associated with a flag transitive action on a Petersen or tilde geometry.The classification is based on the method of group amalgams,the most promising tool in modern finite group theory.Through systematic of group amalgams,the authors establish a deep and important mathematical result.
