Diameter bounds for locally partial geometries

For locally partial geometries all of whose point residues are \(pg(s,t,\alpha)\)s with \(\alpha\geq 2\) and all of whose lines have size \(r\), the (point) diameter \(\Delta\) is shown to be bounded by \(\lfloor s/2\rfloor-\alpha+3\), by \(\lfloor(s-r-\alpha)/2\rfloor+3\) and some more complicated expressions involving the minimal number of points on a plane \(\pi\) adjacent to a point \(p\) over all pairs \((p,\pi)\) with \(p\) at distance 1 to \(\pi\). Several examples of locally partial geometries are given. Among them, there is an elementary construction of a series with parameters \((r,s,t,x)=(1,s,1,2)\) and diameter \(\lfloor s/2\rfloor+1\).
