  In this article we give combinatorial criteria to decide whether a transitive
cyclic combinatorial d-manifold can be generalized to an infinite family of
such complexes, together with an explicit construction in the case that such a
family exists. In addition, we substantially extend the classification of
combinatorial 3-manifolds with transitive cyclic symmetry up to 22 vertices.
Finally, a combination of these results is used to describe new infinite
families of transitive cyclic combinatorial manifolds and in particular a
family of neighborly combinatorial lens spaces of infinitely many distinct
topological types.
