The maximum size of a partial spread in \(H(4n+1, q^{2})\) is \(q^{2n+1}+1\)
The electronic journal of combinatorics, Tome 16 (2009) no. 1
We prove that in every finite Hermitian polar space of odd dimension and even maximal dimension $\rho$ of the totally isotropic subspaces, a partial spread has size at most $q^{\rho+1}+1$, where $GF(q^2)$ is the defining field. This bound is tight and is a generalisation of the result of De Beule and Metsch for the case $\rho=2$.
