An Atlas of Chiral Polytopes for Small Almost Simple Groups

by Michael Hartley, Isabel Hubard and Dimitri Leemans

This Atlas contains all chiral polytopes whose automorphism group is an almost simple group G such that S <= G <= Aut(S) and S is a simple group of order less than 1 million appearing in the Atlas of Finite Groups by Conway et al.
By clicking on a link in the tables below, you'll get tables with all polytopes for the corresponding group. You will also find files containing the generators of the polytopes that appear in this Atlas.

The groups are divided in the following families :

  • Sporadic groups and their automorphism groups
  • Alternating groups and their automorphism groups
  • Linear groups and their automorphism groups
  • Unitary groups and their automorphism groups
  • Suzuki groups and their automorphism groups
