We present results on the size of the smallest maximal partial ovoids and on the size of the smallest maximal partial spreads of the generalized quadrangles W(q) and Q(4, q). Key ...
We present improved lower bounds on the sizes of small maximal partial ovoids and small maximal partial spreads in the classical symplectic and orthogonal polar spaces, and improv...

We classify the minimal blocking sets of size 15 in PG(2, 9). We show that the only examples are the projective triangle and the sporadic example arising from the secants to the u...
We prove the non-existence of maximal partial spreads of size 76 in PG(3, 9). Relying on the classification of the minimal blocking sets of size 15 in PG(2, 9) [22], we show that ...
Two ways of constructing maximal sets of mutually orthogonal Latin squares are presented. The first construction uses maximal partial spreads in PG(3, 4)\ PG(3, 2) with r lines, wh...

We present improved lower bounds on the sizes of small maximal partial ovoids in the classical hermitian polar spaces, and improved upper bounds on the sizes of large maximal part...
