The elementary divisors of the incidence matrix of lines in PG(3,q) are computed, where two lines are incident if and only if they are skew.

Let $P$ be a set of points and $L$ a set of lines in the (extended) Euclidean plane, and $I \subseteq P\times L$, where $i =(p,l) \in I$ means that point $p$ and line $l$ are incident. The incidences can be interpreted as quadratic…

In this paper, we first prove the 2-rank of full incidence matrix of PG(n,q) with $q$ an odd prime power. Then by the quadratic form defined on PG(n,q), the points of it are classified as isotropic and anisotropic points. We divide the full…

Let $K$ be a set of $q^2+2q+1$ points in $PG(4,q)$. We show that if every 3-space meets $K$ in either one, two or three lines, a line and a non-degenerate conic, or a twisted cubic, then $K$ is a ruled cubic surface. Moreover, $K$…
