β¦ Synopsis
First, we survey the known generalized quadrangles of order (q 2 , q), q even, including a description of their known subquadrangles of order q. Then, in the case of Tits' generalized quadrangles, we completely classify the subquadrangles of order q, while in the case of the flock quadrangles we classify the subquadrangles of order q which contain the base point. Finally, we determine the full automorphism groups of the Tits generalized quadrangles T 2 (O) of order q and T 3 (0) of order (q, q 2 ).

## Abstract We characterize the smallest minimal blocking sets of Q(6,__q__), __q__ even and __q__ β₯ 32. We obtain this result using projection arguments which translate the problem into problems concerning blocking sets of Q(4,__q__). Then using results on the size of the smallest minimal blocking
In this paper we show that any dual of the family S of planes defined by Yoshiara [6] also satisfies the same conditions. We present a new family Y (O) of extended generalized quadrangles of order (q + 1, q -1) constructed from the dual of the Yoshiara construction S(O) [6] and show that each such e
Characterizations of classical eggs and the classical generalized quadrangle QΓ°5; sΓ; s even, are given. The egg OΓ°n; 2n; qΓ ΒΌ O of PGΓ°4n Γ 1; qΓ; q even, is classical if and only if either O is good at some element and contains at least one pseudo-conic, or O contains at least two intersecting pseu
## Abstract Some new families of small complete caps in __PG__(__N, q__), __q__ even, are described. By using inductive arguments, the problem of the construction of small complete caps in projective spaces of arbitrary dimensions is reduced to the same problem in the plane. The caps constructed in
