Building on earlier work in the case that d is an odd prime, we here develop methods to handle composite moduli and completely describe the corresponding modular polytopes when G is of spherical or Euclidean type. Using a modular variant of the quotient criterion, we then describe the locally toroidal polytopes provided by our construction, most of which are new.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2008-05-22T14:58:13.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "51M20", "20F55" ], "keywords": [ "locally toroidal polytopes", "modular linear groups", "abstract regular polytope", "handle composite moduli", "crystallographic coxeter group" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 21, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2008arXiv0805.3479M" } } }
