Let n 2, let K, K be fields such that K is a quadratic Galoisextension of K and let ΞΈ denote the unique nontrivial element in Gal(K /K). Suppose the symplectic dual polar space DW (2n -1, K) is fully and isometrically embedded into the Hermitian dual polar space DH(2n -1, K , ΞΈ). We prove that the p
Let 2 be a finite thick dual polar space of rank 3. We say that a hyperplane H of 2 is locally singular (respectively, quadrangular or ovoidal) if H & Q is the perp of a point (resp. a subquadrangle or an ovoid) of Q for every quad Q of 2. If H is locally singular, quadrangular, or ovoidal, then we
Let n (q) denote the geometry of the hyperbolic lines of the symplectic polar space W (2n -1, q), n 2. We show that every hyperplane of n (q) gives rise to a hyperplane of the Hermitian dual polar space DH (2n -1, q 2 ). In this way we obtain two new classes of hyperplanes of DH (2n -1, 4) which do
