Let T be a skew-symmetric Toeplitz matrix with entries in a ยฎnite ยฎeld. For all positive integers n let n be the upper n ร n corner of T, with nullity m n m n . The sequence fm n X n P Ng satisยฎes a unimodality property and is eventually periodic if the entries of T satisfy a periodicity condition.

Some geometry of Hermitian matrices of order three over GF(q 2 ) is studied. The variety coming from rank 2 matrices is a cubic hypersurface M 3 7 of PG(8, q) whose singular points form a variety H corresponding to all rank 1 Hermitian matrices. Beside M 3 7 turns out to be the secant variety of H.
