Spreads and ovoids of finite generalized quadrangles
نویسنده
چکیده
We survey recent results on spreads and ovoids of finite generalized quadrangles. Included in the survey are results on ovoids of PG(3, q); translation ovoids of Q(4, q); characterisations of generalized quadrangles using subquadrangles and ovoids of subquadrangles; and spreads of T2(Ω).

Partial Ovoids and Spreads in Generalized Quadrangles, and Related Combinatorial Structures
In this paper we overview what is known about partial ovoids and spreads of finite (classical) generalized quadrangles. In the first, respectively the second, part of the paper we will be mostly concerned with small, respectively large, maximal partial ovoids and spreads. Also connections with other interesting objects in finite geometry will be explained. Among the new results are new bounds o...
متن کاملOn the smallest maximal partial ovoids and spreads of the generalized quadrangles W(q) and Q(4, q)
We present results on the size of the smallest maximal partial ovoids and on the size of the smallest maximal partial spreads of the generalized quadrangles W (q) and Q(4, q).
متن کاملAntidesigns and regularity of partial spreads in dual polar graphs
We give several examples of designs and antidesigns in classical finite polar spaces. These types of subsets of maximal totally isotropic subspaces generalize the dualization of the concepts of m-ovoids and tight sets of points in generalized quadrangles. We also consider regularity of partial spreads and spreads. The techniques that we apply were developed by Delsarte. In some polar spaces of ...
متن کاملTight sets, weighted m -covers, weighted m -ovoids, and minihypers
Minihypers are substructures of projective spaces introduced to study linear codes meeting the Griesmer bound. Recently, many results in finite geometry were obtained by applying characterization results on minihypers [8, 17, 18]. In this paper, using characterization results on certain minihypers, we present new results on tight sets in classical finite polar spaces and weighted m-covers, and ...
متن کاملTranslation ovoids of flock generalized quadrangles
We give a characterization of translation ovoids of flock generalized quadrangles. Then we prove that, if q = 2e , each elation generalized quadrangle defined by a flock has a large class of translation ovoids which arise from semifields of dimension two over their left nucleus. Finally, we give some examples when q is odd. © 2003 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved. MSC (2000): Primary 51E12; Se...
