Abstract
Let be a field of characteristic different from and be a vector space over . Let be a fixed involutory automorphism on . In this paper we answer the following question: given an invertible linear map , when does the vector space admit a -invariant non-degenerate -hermitian, resp. -skew-hermitian, form?
