AbstractWe prove lower bounds on the size of small maximal partial spreads inQ+(4n+ 1,q),W(2n+ 1,q), andH(2n+ 1,q2). This research on the size of smallest maximal partial spreads in classical finite polar spaces is part of a detailed study on small and large maximal partial ovoids and spreads in classical finite polar spaces, performed in [De Beule, Klein, Metsch, Storme, Des. Codes Cryptogr 47: 21–34, 2008, De Beule, Klein, Metsch, Storme, European J. Combin 29: 1280–1297, 2008].

Some constructions of maximal partial spreads of finite classical polar spaces are provided. In particular we show that, for $n \ge 1$, $\mathcal{H}(4n-1,q^2)$ has a maximal partial spread of size $q^{2n}+1$, $\mathcal{H}(4n+1,q^2)$ has a maximal partial spread of size $q^{2n+1}+1$ and, for $n \ge 2$, $\mathcal{Q}^+(4n-1,q)$, $\mathcal{Q}(4n-2,q)$, $\mathcal{W}(4n-1,q)$, $q$ even, $\mathcal{W}(4n-3,q)$, $q$ even, have a maximal partial spread of size $q^n+1$.

We obtain a classification of the nonclassical hyperplanes of all finite thick dual polar spaces of rank at least 3 under the assumption that there are no ovoidal and semi-singular hex intersections. In view of the absence of known examples of ovoids and semi-singular hyperplanes in finite thick dual polar spaces of rank 3, the condition on the nonexistence of these hex intersections can be regarded as not very restrictive. As a corollary, we also obtain a classification of the nonclassical hyperplanes of $DW(2n-1,q)$, $q$ even. In particular, we obtain a complete classification of all nonclassical hyperplanes of $DW(2n-1,q)$ if $q \in \{ 8,32 \}$.
