Abstract
This paper completes the classification of nets of conics containing at least one double line in for even. This classification contributes to the classification of partially symmetric tensors in , even. The proof is obtained using geometric and combinatorial properties of the Veronese surface in 5-dimensional projective space over the finite field of even order. In particular, the orbits of planes in that intersect the nucleus plane of the Veronese surface in at least one point are classified. As a result, it is shown that there are exactly equivalence classes of nets in , even, containing at least one double line, of which have an empty base.
