A LOOK AT SOME FAMILIES OF GEOMETRIES AND THEIR LATTICES OF FLATS

We look at a family of geometries of a particularly simple type. We then consider the lattices of flats of these geometries. Since the geometries satisfy the exchange property, their flat lattices will be geometric. We consider the question of whether the Whitney numbers of these lattices are logarithmically concave.
