Abstract
Let denote the space of -dimensional, oriented isotropic subspaces of , called the oriented isotropic Grassmannian. Let be a map between two oriented isotropic Grassmannians of the same dimension, where . We show that either or the degree of must be zero. Let denote the oriented real Grassmann manifold. For and , we also show that the degree of maps and must be zero.
