This note presents some properties of the variety of planes $F_2(X)\subset G(3,7)$ of a cubic $5$-fold $X\subset \mathbb P^6$. A cotangent bundle exact sequence is first derived from the remark made by Iliev and Manivel that $F_2(X)$ sits…

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, $K$…

This paper studies {\em strong blocking sets} in the $N$-dimensional finite projective space $\mathrm{PG}(N,q)$. We first show that certain unions of blocking sets cannot form strong blocking sets, which leads to a new lower bound on the…

In this paper results are proved with applications to the orbits of $(n-1)$-dimensional subspaces disjoint from a regulus $\cR$ of $(n-1)$-subspaces in $\PG(2n-1,q)$, with respect to the subgroup of $\PGL(2n,q)$ fixing $\cR$. Such results…

Bonini, Borello and Byrne started the study of saturating linear sets in Desarguesian projective spaces, in connection with the covering problem in the rank metric. In this paper we study \emph{$1$-saturating} linear sets in PG$(2,q^4)$,…

An $\mathbb{F}_q$- linear set $L=L_U$ of $\Lambda=\mathrm{PG}(V, \mathbb{F}_{q^n}) \cong \mathrm{PG}(r-1,q^n)$ is a set of points defined by non-zero vectors of an $\mathbb{F}_q$-subspace $U$ of $V$. The integer $\dim_{\mathbb{F}_q} U$ is…

In the three-dimensional projective space PG(3,q) over the finite field F_q with q elements, we consider the normal rational curve known as a twisted cubic and the projectivity group G_q that fixes it. For q = 2, 3, 4, we solve the open…

Let $\pi$ be an order-$q$-subplane of $PG(2,q^3)$ that is exterior to $\ell_\infty$. Then the exterior splash of $\pi$ is the set of $q^2+q+1$ points on $\ell_\infty$ that lie on an extended line of $\pi$. Exterior splashes are projectively…

Let $H$ be a non-empty set of hyperplanes in $PG(4,q)$, $q$ even, such that every point of $PG(4,q)$ lies in either $0$, $\frac12q^3$ or $\frac12(q^3+q^2)$ hyperplanes of $ H$, and every plane of $PG(4,q)$ lies in $0$ or at least $\frac12q$…

On the projective plane there is a unique cubic root of the canonical bundle and this root is acyclic. On fake projective planes such root exists and is unique if there are no 3-torsion divisors (and usually exists, but not unique,…

Let $S$ be a closed surface of genus $g \geq 2$. We construct locally homogeneous geometric structures on closed 5-manifolds fibering over $S$, modeled on the two partial flag manifolds $\mathrm{Ein}^{2,3}$ and $\mathrm{Pho}^\times$ of the…

We consider the structure of the plane-line incidence matrix of the projective space $\mathrm{PG}(3,q)$ with respect to the orbits of planes and lines under the stabilizer group of the twisted cubic. Structures of submatrices with…

Explicit constructions of infinite families of scattered ${\mathbb F}_q$--linear sets in $PG(r-1,q^t)$ of maximal rank $\frac{rt}2$, for $t$ even, are provided. When $q=2$ and $r$ is odd, these linear sets correspond to complete caps in…

Let $\text{PG}(n,q)$ be the Desarguesian projective space of dimension $n$ over the finite field of order $q$. The \emph{linear representation} of a point set $\mathcal{K}$ in a hyperplane at infinity of $\text{PG}(n,q)$ is the point-line…

We build an explicit $C^1$ isometric embedding $f_{\infty}:\mathbb{H}^2\to\mathbb{E}^3$ of the hyperbolic plane whose image is relatively compact. Its limit set is a closed curve of Hausdorff dimension 1. Given an initial embedding $f_0$,…

A principal Higgs bundle $(P,\phi)$ over a singular curve $X$ is a pair consisting of a principal bundle $P$ and a morphism $\phi:X\to\text{Ad}P \otimes \Omega^1_X$. We construct the moduli space of principal Higgs G-bundles over an…

In this article we consider a set C of points in PG(4,q), q even, satisfying certain combinatorial properties with respect to the planes of PG(4,q). We show that there is a regular spread in the hyperplane at infinity, such that in the…

Lunardon and Polverino construct a translation plane starting from a scattered linear set of pseudoregulus type in $\mathrm{PG}(1,q^t)$. In this paper a similar construction of a translation plane $\mathcal A_f$ obtained from any scattered…

The group $PGL(2,q)$ has an embedding into $PGL(3,q)$ such that it acts as the group fixing a nonsingular conic in $PG(2,q)$. This action affords a coherent configuration $R(q)$ on the set $L(q)$ of non-tangent lines of the conic. We show…

Let $\mathrm{PG}(3,q)$ be the projective space of dimension three over the finite field with $q$ elements. Consider a twisted cubic in $\mathrm{PG}(3,q)$. The structure of the point-plane incidence matrix in $\mathrm{PG}(3,q)$ with respect…
